Biopsy

Ray was feeling well enough this morning he felt he could make it on his own to the Dr. for the blood work. After all he was just going in for the daily CBC routinely done dozens of times before. Well the Dr. sprang a surprise on him and decided another bone marrow biopsy should be done today. I felt terrible that I wasn't there with him while that was being done. He did make it through the whole procedure just fine...without me. They kept him there a little longer than usual, drinking plenty of fluids, making sure he was OK before he left, and he made it home without any problem. Those biopsies are done with a local anethesia in the hip. We'll know the results in about a week.

His counts are still improving each day, so he's been given the weekend off. Nice! Have a great weekend!

Love you all,
Kim
