Now, we wait

Lucas had his Induction Treatment day 29 (technically day 31 as day 29 was a Saturday) bone marrow aspiration (together with a spinal tap). From the bone marrow sample, we will learn how much leukemia cells there are still in his bone marrow. We hope none, as the induction treatment usually kills all cancer cells there is in blood stream and bone marrow. The initial result, by counting the cells under a microscope, will be out tomorrow and I will be waiting for a call from the doctor. Really nervous as it means a lot for his treatment going forward as well as his chance of survival and be cancer-free. Please keep us in your prayers!
