Friday's Oncologist Appointment

We had our appointment with Dr Balepur this AM, right after 11. He looked at all the tests, CAT scan results, biopsy reports, checked out her body with his magic node feeling hands.

His words, the lymph node biopsy is Negative, the bone marrow biopsy is Negative, the CAT scan shows nothing remarkable, the physical show us nothing. Everything is Wonderful and we are now on a two month schedule for the next checkup. We will email Dr Meade in Baltimore, the tissue biopsy results so he has them in the records there.

NO BONE MARROW TRANSPLANT is needed, in Dr Balepur's eyes, as there is nothing happening, other than the nodes shrinking. We will leave for Augusta, GA, slightly before Tiger Woods, this Sunday and stay for 8 - 10 days with Eric, Julie and Ruby! I just want to drive there in one day and be there for Sunday evening.

Saturday afternoon is Mason's birthday celebration in Harrisburg, so we will be well visited with Mason and Kaelyn before going to GA.

Wonderful news for Adele and I, although I have been promoting this news for quite awhile. God heard all those prayers and gave her a respite from it, pray that it stays in remission and does not flare up again. Thank you all for the prayers and help in the past three months.

Free I say - We are Free again! Corvette Summer Cruising is almost here.

  1. Hi Rick/Adele! This is Jim's friend Linda, from New Hope. I am SO happy to hear that Adele is doing well and does not need a bone marrow transplant. God sure does hear everyone's prayers.
