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.

not getting out today

Looks like he won't be getting out today. So far his tests are all negative but his dr. told him this morning they may take out his Hickman to make sure there isn't any infection.
I'll be visiting him more tonight and hopefully find out more.

I'm hanging out at home today and tomorrow while I attempt to sell some unused items at a garage sale.
