Last Bone Marrow Aspiration?



The day he was diagnosed with leukemia, the initial bone marrow analysis indicated 61% blasts in the marrow. At Day 14 of chemo, the target was to get that percentage below 4%. The Day 14 sample showed ZERO blasts, Praise God! Here we see father and son, on July 7th, 2010. This is the sample they take 2 weeks after the Day 14 sample. The target here is <0.1% blasts. This will hopefully be the last bone marrow aspiration for Luke... ever. If the results come back as hoped, and a few other things pan out, he will be considered in remission, and will continue on various chemo medicines for the next 3 years. Pray, pray, pray.
