So we found out some really good news yesterday for Jenene’s treatment: her sister Charlene is a Bone Marrow match. More details about the procedure, when she will have it and recovery times will be coming soon, but for now that is some REALLY great news!
Nothing much else has changed on her chemotherapy; she began a new type of regiment that started Friday (3/4). She did a 22 hour round of Methotrexate (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methotrexate) until 6am Saturday morning. Now she is on Cytarabine (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytarabine) every twelve hours for 1 more day. Then she will be getting the Metrotrexate via intrathecal on March 11th at noon.
We are again very happy with the match with Charlene. We also appreciate all the visits and texts, the calls, the emails (jmphilips503@hotmail.com) and just the warm wishes to her.
Thanks again
