Good News

We went back to the BMT unit yesterday and they gave us the good news that they do not have to do a liver biopsy. Terry was very relieved!!! It is enlarged but not to a point where they need to look in it! Dr. Lopez said he thinks it most likely GVHD and the tests for mono, hepatitis, and some other test I cannot spell, were negative. WE both looked up towards the ceiling and said "Thank you LORD"! We know he is watching over us! They changed how he is going to take his cyclosporine, once in the morning and once at night. The enzymes in the liver came down too, so that was a big other reason the doctor decided not to do a biopsy. We have prayed every day for the enzymes to be down. His CBC was good, all the numbers white cell, red cell and platelets were a little low but were OK with the doctor. He is actually fishing with Mike Pitts today, first chance with the weather to go, and he was really excited! Hope he catches some! We go back on Wednesday and they will draw more blood to see what the liver enzymes are doing. Hope everyone had a great Valentines, ours was so special this year especially since last year was so different. John had to step up for Terry last year and he did a GREAT job! He really had a soft spot this year and went with us to eat dinner. That is different for John! But you would have to live with him to know it! Both our kids have been great through all this and have brought us even closer! Hugs your loved ones every chance you get! God Bless You for hanging in here with us! Love to all! Alyce
