Still hanging in there... Just found out that Zach has appointments scheduled at MD Anderson on Friday, August 1st. So far, he has an EKG, PET scan and bone marrow biopsy (ugh!). These are the diagnostics that must be done to establish a baseline before he starts the clinical trial. We're not sure if this is it or if there are more tests to be scheduled. So, it looks like we'll be spending that weekend in Houston and then he'll start the trial early the following week. We have a lot to do between now and then. I'm planning on going with him for the first few days, but then coming back to work after he gets settled down there. It looks like he will need to spend the majority of the first treatment cycle down there. So, we need to look at apartments, figure out how he is going to get there, etc.. This is good news though - we are excited for him to start this trial as soon as possible. He is feeling pretty good and is much improved from week before last. We're just trying to enjoy the last few weeks before he isn't home for a while.... Thank you for your continued thoughts and prayers!
