another update

Please be patient with the slow updates, life has been busy for us.  Scotty is still home, doing allright.  He is trying to rest and stay upbeat.  I will be honest we both have our good and bad days.  Scotty was able to do another chemo treatment on Friday in his doctors office.  It made the weekend pretty crummy.  That on top of super duty steroids didn't make for too good a weekend but we will be done with steroids tomorrow and hopefully he will be feeling better.  Scotty's labwork was really low on Friday.  We know that all his blood cells are expected to be bad because of the kind of cancer and the chemotherapy.  We are hoping that it gets better soon.  As his blood gets better I think he will be feeling better.  I am sure if it gets worse we will be recieving blood transfusions.  We are still waiting approval from insurance on two injections that should have been done last week (GRRRR!!) and hopefully that will be done tomorrow.    We have a doctor appointment on Wednesday to check in.  Basically we are just waiting for time to pass so we can do another bone marrow biopsy to see if we have reached remission status.  (Fingers crossed)  I am so very grateful to everyone who has helped cook us meals, furnished gift cards for restaurants (can't wait to use them), picked up my kids and took care of them for me, came to clean the house, take care of our dog and just visit.  I am so grateful and can not say thank you enough.  The help has been very appreciated.  Thanks again.
