It's Official

Yesterday we received good news from my doctor in Chicago...I'm still in remission, according to my last bone marrow biopsy. (This was the 100 day post-transplant biopsy.) My doctor told me that I'm not cured, but this is the best thing we could hope for considering what I've gone through. So, we were very happy to hear that news.

Also, I got the last bit of paperwork squared away with my insurance company and I'll be returning to work next Tuesday part-time to start. My doctor wants me to start slow, working 20 hours for the first week and then increasing by one hour every week after. Finally!

My ride is not over, but everything is looking up. I would like to take a moment and thank everyone for all the support we've gotten over the last 9 months. The response from friends and family has been unimaginably limitless. And my wife and I are very grateful for that. You know who you are, and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
