Our life with acute myeloid leukemia

Just a diary I'm keeping after we found out on 9th June 2010 (our baby's first birthday) that my other half has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer and how we get by (hopefully I'll be better with this than I am with a diary :giggle: )

OH MY GOD!!! I'm so happy I could cry!!!!

I have just had great news!!! OH just called to tell me his Dr has just been in, he is responding really well to treatment, there is a 70% reduction in leukemia cells already and they are saying he has a 90% chance of going into remission by the end of this first round of chemo!!! I'm so happy I don't know what to do with myself. I know that he may not go into remission on this round but I'm clinging to the info I have just got with both hands and there is nothing that can get me today!!! He will still have to have a further 2 rounds of chemo (one to ensure the cancer has gone, one lower dose for a reason I forget :oops: ) and so at the end he will still be weak but it mean he should be home for Christmas and better!!! I'm not fooling myself, I know because of the type of cancer he has a high chance of relapse in the next 5 years but we can fight this thing!!!!
HE'S MINE AND I'M KEEPING HIM SO BACK OFF CANCER!!!!!
i'M SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HAPPY
Off to dance quietly round the room (Austin is napping) :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :pirate: :pirate: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
