I should be cheering.

I got the results of the PET scan today and the first two words on the review were "Significant Improvement

Good to hear something positive, even if'n not certain (but really, what IS?) *HUGS* from up here.

That is positive! Whoo hoo!

Will you be asked to do a marrow drive?

[redefining_self]

I don't have any details on that yet. I don't even have a date for the initial consultation with the BMT doc. However, as my current treatments run through Jan 3rd and there will be a minimum amount of time required to allow the body to detoxify before attempting it I imagine this will be sometime in the middle or late Spring.

However, if there's a call for a drive I'll be sure everyone knows. I know a lot of you (and I would be, too) have been wanting to do something substantial to help. Registering with the BM donor's list would be HUGE. :)

Unrelated - I'll be at the show tonight for the first part (I mean it *is* lingerie night) but I won't be able to stay for the whole thing.

Let Eric and I know and we'll go get the BM test - He just told me that this will hurt like a sonuvabitch, but you're worth it ;)

The test as I understand it is simply collecting a blood sample. But the actual donation (if you were to match someone) would be an admittedly uncomfortable surgery.

And thanks. Were our positions reversed I would take the same stance.

I've been meaning to do something like this for a while. Though, I'm sure my marrow will only do a 6 of 6 match with my siblings - who are as mixed as I am =D

They have some new procedures now that seem to be as effective, they just give you flu-like symptoms for a few days. Buffy's worth it either way, but good to know it would be less...

My offer still stands... let me know if there is a testing time decided
