Guest guest Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Thanks, Dana, and Kathy. I agree that reading positive posts is helpful! I find it best to stay as upbeat as possible--not in denial, but rather choosing to walk on the sunnier side of the stret! ;-) Bless you both! > > > > My 19-year-old son (dx July 4, 2005) saw the oncologist > > yesterday, and all the news is > > very good! > > > > First off, he put on two pounds, for which I am > > thankful. > > Then, his blood test was all good; his anemia is all > > but gone, and I can tell by looking at him.

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 Thank you, ! I happened to go for my own regular checkup (just for cholesterol, etc.) this morning, and my doctor is the one who admitted to the ER in the first place, (with suspected meningitis, then we found out about the CML, etc.) and so, he wanted to know all about how was doing, etc. He was very happy to know about ' good report last week. It truly is such a blessing. I hope *you* are doing well today, also!
