He is expect to stay there for 2-3 hours. 3 procedures will be done (bone marrow draw and biopsy at hip bone, spinal fluid draw at lower back, and port installation. We are in the waiting room. After each procedure, the doctor will come to update us.
The test result for bone marrow will be out later today or early tomorrow. From that we will know what kind of Leukemia it is and the risk category. Spinal fluid result will be out at latest Monday, that will tell us if the cancer cell is found in spinal fluid. First batch of chemo medicine is put into spinal fluid during this surgery regardless of the findings.
I really really really hope there will be good news that I can share with you tomorrow morning. The surgery goes as it's supposed to go. And no cancer cells in spinal fluid. Please pray and bless! Thank you!
I am sorry to hear Locus's new. My hear and thought are with you. I hope he stay strong during the treatment and recover well and soon.
