I have not updated our blog in many weeks. My treatment for Multiple Myeloma went very well. My doctors all seem encouraged by my progress and so that encourages us. The last time they did a blood test for the myeloma they could not find any evidence of the cancer. In two weeks I will hit day 100 after my transplant. That day is a significant milestone and I will have a series of tests run at that time to allow the doctors to analyze and confirm the state of my cancer. We will get the results of those tests on May 7th.
Recently I began going back to work. While this has been a great thing and indicates the progress I have made it is also hard. I like to be busy and going back to work has caused me to want to do more and more. So I have a struggle, because I feel very good, with not doing too much. I can feel it when I do too much. Kathy, and others, are trying to keep me in check and I need to remember to listen to them (Kathy especially).
Today is a grey, cool day in Leavenworth. We are expecting rain the next few days. What a great day to enjoy a cup of tea with a friend or alongside a good book.
Have a great day and rejoice in the Creator as you think about all you have been given.
Kevin
