Hi everyone,

Just a quick note to let you all know that Rand's bone marrow went real well.   He had a intern do the procedure with a physician assisting....a bit uncomfortable at times, but Rand was sedated and didn't feel anything.  But, after watching 5 of these I'll have to say this one was the most uncomfortable to watch.  But, all is well!!  They will not get the results regarding if there are Lymphoma cellls for two days. (Believing there are not) . And it will take about a week to do the DNA testing on the marrow to see how much of Cindy's stem cells are in his bone marrow.  (Believing for 100%).  So  we have some waiting time to go through which we have a real peace about. That peace is certainly a gift from God. Rand got a bit of a scolding regarding his weight.  He has to work harder on that otherwise they won't let him go home.....it's just as important as his blood counts.  So I believe the point was taken with some seriousness this time. His heart test came back perfect, his blood clots are remaining inactive, so many things are going well.  We just need to pray for the bone marrow test's to be clear of cancer, and full of Cindy's cells, and also that his appetite will increase and blood counts will keep climbing up to normal.  His Pet Scan is scheduled for Wednesday and we are praying with our heart that all is clear according to God's promises.  Please pray the God's divine plan will be manifested through all of this. 

Have a wonderful wonderful weekened,

Love Rand and Joanie
