Update from Grandma Bennion

The lastest information as of Fri. 6-5-09.....The doctor said that it was a 97% diagnosis of AML ---Acute Myeloid Leukemia. There are still test results coming in for the next couple of days. There is now a treatment plan in place so now he begins that phase. Today, Sat. 6-6-09 he is having a spinal tap and then they will inject the beginning chemo meds. This is not the beginning of the actual treatment which if I understand correctly will begin tomorrow. The first phase will consist of 10 days of chemo, then recovery(total for phase I is 28 days). As a family we are so grateful for all of your prayers and help.
