August 29, 2012 – Day 90
According to the MDA BM department, I am 90 days old today! and … I feel greeeeat (as Tony the kellogg’s frosted flakes tiger says) . I had my Bone Marrow Aspiration and Biopsy on Friday the 24th and it was uneventful to the point that I told my nurse to give me another round 😉 On Monday the results were out and I was told that my bone marrow was squeaky clean, as if Jacqueline cleaned it herself (although we know He did it) I had 0% blast!!! (the normal range is from 0-5%) PTL!!! Next week, my transplant doctor is planning to add a low dose of Chemo pills to my maintenance plan and If all goes well, then he will approve removing my tri lumen catheter which will allow me to be fully free !!!! … Samir is anxiously awaiting this day to start wrestling again with yours truly … 🙂
As a blessed side note, I overheard the other day my Mom and Jacqueline saying that, usually, after walking through the valley of shadow of death, people look back and then realize that the Lord was with them all the time … however, in our case, we felt Him on a daily basis, while still in the valley, with every single step. PTL!!!
I thank you for faithful prayers and support! Day 100 is around the corner (ya yes!) 🙂
In His Grip,
Sami

شكراً للرب من اجل كل حسناته التي لا تحصى ولا تعدً. أقول للرب ملجإي وحصني إلهي فأتكل عليه.
إحصاء ايامنا هكذا علمنا فنؤتى قلب حكمة.
لا يمنع خيراً عن السالكين بالكمال. يا رب الجنود طوبى للانسان المتكل عليك
ما أعظم أعمالك يا رب وأعمق جداً أفكارك.
الصديق كالنخلة يزهو كالارز في لبنان في لبنان ينمو.
