Don has been doing so well, his blood counts are back to normal!! The doctor says he can leave the hospital tomorrow. He will now go to the hospital outpatient for awhile. Daily visits to do lab's and clinical visit to his doctor. The doctor will decide when we get to leave here and come back home. Not for a couple more weeks I am sure. They want to do a P.E.T. scan, a bone marrow test and remove his CVC Catheter before we can return home. Yesterday Don and I attended a Discharge Class. They gave us all the do's and don'ts for the next six months or so. His immune system will be very fragile. Looks like he gets out of cutting our grass for six months...hehe. But it also looks like he will be doing more golfing and less fishing for awhile. We can continue to see all our family at Sunday School, but will have to stay away from the crowds at church service. Lots of rules, but all for his best interest. So if you see him wearing his mask in public for awhile you will know why.
Hope to see you all before much longer,
Don and Kathi
