Update from April 8th

Jenene is going to be admitted tomorrow to OHSU for a second chemotherapy treatment of HyperCard - Course B for about 4 or 5 days. We will let you all know what room she will be in (her first treatment of the Hyper CVAD - Course B, was while she was in the hospital).

She had a bone marrow biopsy on Tuesday and the sample that they got had less than 5% of leukemia detected.

She then will be out of the hospital and back at her mom’s to recover for a few weeks, with visits to the clinic 2 to 3 times a week to check her vitals and draw labs.

She has been told that her stem cell transplant may be delayed depending on what the outcome of her chemo treatment and if the doctor wants to do a third treatment. So what they will do is when she is out this next time (next week) she will be out for 2 to 3 weeks, then they will decide to either do another treatment of the Hyper-CVAD - Course B or they will start prepping her to receive the stem cell transplant.

What WE think they will do is another round of chemotherapy. IF they do, she will be out again for 2 to 3 weeks and then go in again.

Her charitable fund is with FirstTech Credit Union If you wish to donate to her, please make the checks out to Jenene Philips and you can send them to either 1392 SE 64th Court Hillsboro, OR 97123 or 3543 SE Belmont St, Portland OR 97214.

Or visit her website with a PayPal account attached, so that you can donate to her via a credit card. That site is here: http://jenenephilips.tumblr.com/.

Thanks for all your love and support.
