I spoke to Morgan on the phone twice today, both times it lifted my spirit.  He was alert, spunky and working on things that interest him.  I could tell he was feeling good.

Kasha called me with an update.  His white blood cell count is up to 4.something.  That’s a jump from 1.7 yesterday.  He ate well all day.  No pain. Showered. He had visitors today and held conversations which does us all good.  Ruth (Kasha’s Mom), Kasha (after work), and Michael (our big brother) all visited and didn’t have to wear masks today.

There were rumblings of radiation today.  The radiologist stopped by to visit with Morgan once, then made his way in again when he learned Kasha was there.  Brownie points for Dr. S (radiologist).  He said that they were going to wait on radiation until after chemo.  He said that chemo works well on this stuff and that they would wait until after 10 chemo treatments or so.  He even mentioned the word REMISSION, which has not been said before.    Oh, music to our ears.

I am doing a happy dance… anyone wanna join me?  : )
