Results from 8/15

I'm a little behind in updating and the latest news from the lab results is pretty miraculous: platelets are NORMAL! (140). All other numbers still looking great, all still showing improvement with many already back to normal. Venetoclax seems to be agreeing with Eric. He finished the first week and began the ramped up (increase dosage) second week and everything seems fine so far.

It's pretty amazing how effective this treatment has been so far and how well Eric has been feeling. This is nothing like the last go round. We just hope the end result is as good-- all indications are that it will be.

Labs and FastTrack visit this Thursday and next. Then treatment on 9/5.
