Discouraging News

Well, it is really hard to write this tonight because I am feeling a little down. I talked with Alyce today and Dr. Yielding had been by this morning and told them that the blood tests they did Monday showed some cancer cells in the blood again. Terry was on his 4th day of chemo today, will rest tomorrow and have chemo on Saturday. He is feeling fine and should be released sometime Sunday. He will have to go to the Cancer Center (doctor's office) every day for a shot until his blood levels get back to where they want them. The doctor told them of a fairly new procedure with Antibodies that he wants to try on Terry when he has to go back into the hospital again in 6 weeks. He says he has had some great results from that treatment. Meanwhile, he is going to schedule us a meeting with the Bone Marrow Transplant doctor at UAB in the next month or two to discuss that treatment just in case the Antibodies treatment is not effective. We may be down, but we are definitely not out!! God is still in control and we believe in the power of prayer. Please continue to pray for Terry's complete healing. Love to all, Karen
