Hi team!!! Mom has asked me to share some exciting news with you all that she got from the doctors today. Instead of paraphrasing it, I am posting the message that she sent to the family. I want to thank you all for all of your prayers and well wishes. I believe with all of my heart that the love and support that mom has received from this group is what enabled her to fight this nasty thing so quickly and successfully. She isnt done yet, we still have about 6 months of chemo treatments ahead of us, but it looks like she will not need to have a bone marrow transplant. Becky Burman Davis Hey guys! I decided to send the message out this way to save having to repeat it so many times. lol My oncologist was just in and told me that they had presented my case to a whole group of consulting oncologists and have decided that being that Im adopted and have no full siblings, they do not want to pursue doing a bone marrow transplant. They fantastic news is that they feel there is about a 90% chance of being able to achieve remission with just chemotherapy alone. They did say this type of leukemia has a high recurrence rate, but that we can manage it as time goes on!!!
