7 months later...

Hello everyone! Can you believe it's been 7 months since we've last posted? I sure can't.  However, we still have people ask us constantly how my dad is doing, which is so incredibly appreciated.  We wanted to share with everyone the great news...dad is still in remission and doing great! In fact, he had his monthly ongoing check-up today at City of Hope and all of his blood numbers came back in normal range. Whoo hoo!!

2 years ago this month is when dad was first diagnosed.  In 3 weeks he will be celebrating his birthday, which we are all excited for.  Birthdays are a big deal now, they should never not be a big deal in my opinion, for anyone.  He technically has 2 birthdays a year now, June 1st he will turn 61 and on September 9th he will celebrate his 1st re-birth day (first year with new cells). 

Here's a picture my mom sent me today of him in front of the fountain at City of Hope.

God is good, all the time.

Thanks everyone for following his story and for your constant thoughts and prayers!! xoxo.


Below is a recent picture of my dad with his perfect match bone marrow donor, his sister Charlene.
