Journal entry by Minda Albright

Just wanted to give everyone an update on Dad's cancer.  Until a month ago there was little sign of his cancer is his blood work.  His cancer is starting to show signs of coming back so they have started him back in treatment with a new more targeted treatment.  He is receiving a shot 1 a week that specifically attacks the cancer cells in his bone marrow.  He is also know on a different Chemo pill he takes at home also to get a head of the cancer.

As of right now he has been experiencing some side effects from the treatment.  It is making his bone marrow not produce enough of ANC to keep his blood levels up.  So this is going on the 2nd week that he has not had his shot treatment in the office because his levels are to low.  He is instead having shots to try to get his bone marrow to increase the production of the ANC.

Thank you for the continue support and prayers!
