Doctor visit
Yesterday Kyle and I went to Cleveland for my monthly doctor appointment and my doctor says I'm doing great. So, we are going to taper off the prednisone and in 2 weeks I will be totally off of it! He is happy with my blood counts and said I can discontinue going to the local oncologist for weeky blood tests! So now I just have my monthly appointment with my Cleveland doctor, unless anything goes wrong, which I am hoping and praying does not happen. They took my Hickman line out too, so now I feel even more free! After my appointment, we went to Kyle and Erika's for dinner and we shared a glass of wine together to celebrate the good news! Erika is going to run in the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's marathon next year in my honor! The proceeds go to cancer research and if you would like to donate in my name there is a link on my blog site that you can go to learn more about it. Erika is such a wonderful daughter in law, and I truly appreciate all the hard work it will take for her to train for this. She is so thoughtful and I am so blessed to have her in my life, as well as all the rest of my family and friends. God bless you all.
