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.

headed for Houston


Chris and I are headed out the door for Houston; his appointment is at 9 a.m. tomorrow.  
We had a wonderful 5 days out in Georgetown with our son and Chris' mom.  Our boy sure is a jokester!  I was going to write a longer blog but I'm eager to get on the road!  
I will post a blog update tomorrow after we return to our hotel from MD Anderson.
