I was Chris' wife/caregiver & this is the medical blog I wrote during his treatment. Short history: dx in July 2010, no initial bone marrow involvement, did 5 rounds hyper-cvad protocol. Found out he is in relapse/refractory status with involvement in his chest, spleen, inguinal & throat lymph nodes, bone marrow, spine & brain in January 2011 when we went to MD Anderson for treatment. The two different rounds of chemo Chris got at MDA could not put him in remission; he died of leukemia/lymphoma on March 18th, 2011, an astonishing and horrific 8 months after his diagnosis.

bone marrow test completed

Chris just completed his very painful bone marrow test.  Hopefully we will get some results on Friday and go from there.  His counts are still not improved so hopefully his test results will shed some light.
There isn't much else to report.  He has been eating a bit more lately so that is good.  
I'm sure most of you have seen the blog I've made but here is the link again, please share it with anyone you think can help:
