Less than 2%

Wed. 4/25 at 1:35 pm. Just got a callback from Dr. Berman's nurse Coco. The results of my recent bone marrow aspiration are less than 2% Blasts. Again. This is the 3rd time in a row. So, I hope this is a precursor to the future of a long remission come next Fall. I'm hoping these Chemos are wiping out the cancerous cells and we'll be in a favorable remission. That's the goal I do believe. Meantime we gotta do what the Doctor and Hospital needs to cleanup this disease. So, back for more Chemo on May 7th-13th. Then isolation for a few weeks. I suspect June will be a fine month to play in sea and sand, woods and lakes, clubs and concert halls, parks and forests, art galleries and museums, jazz/blues and concert bands (Orchestras).
Again, thanks for all your messages, prayers, blood, platelets, food, and rides.
Please say a prayer and send your best wishes to my good friend/roomate/floormate/ and "Docmate" Brad Aspell, this week receiving his bone marrow transplant. (We both think the world of Dr. Berman).
And of course every day we think about the late great Mikey B. A prayer for him indeed.
Much love to all. JIMBO
