Good Luck and my prayers with you Debra.

Hello, many of you may remember i was on Gleevec in complete remission, when my

liver failed to handle it anymore. I have been without any treatment for almost

4 months. As of this morning i am officially Patient #1 of the newly opened BMS

Study at Washington University in St Louis Missouri. Yey for me! Next thursday

May 26th i will have my BMB and labs. Then see the doctor on June 3rd. Then in

the week of the 13th i will begin the ekg's and actually start the drug. They

wanted to start the previous week, but my son gets married on the eleventh and

that will be a hectic week already. I am so excited to finally get started. We

know this drug will work for all of us, because we refuse to accept anything

less. Debra
