Its working!

I just spoke with my dad and he asked me to post a little update regarding moms treatment.  Mom's oncologist gave us the results of her latest labs.  It appears that the chemo is working.  As of today there is no trace of leukemia in her body.  That doesn't mean that this fight is over...not by a long shot.  It does mean that the treatment going as the doctors had hoped.  These nasty cancer cells can hide in different parts of the body.  The brain, the spinal column, etc.  While this latest news is fantastic, the doctors will continue moms treatment in the hospital as planned for the next few weeks.  After that, the plan is to continue with out patient treatment which could go on for up to three years.  At this point we have to take things day by day.  We do know that prayers are being answered.  The road is long, but today has brought a bit of relief if only for a little while.
Love, Jenn
