This is from Darin: SETH

Darin sent this email....this is all he knows right now. I have asked questions but the fact is right now there just aren't many answers so please read below and wait and pray with the rest of us....I will update with new information ASAP. Thanks


so here is what I know:

when Seth relapsed at Christmas his bone marrow contained about 7% "blasts" (the start of leukemic cells). after one new round of chemo he has 40% leukemic cells in his bone marrow. This is bad. the fact that it is going up is bad the fact that is went up during and after chemo is bad.

what now?

he will get 3 types of chemo this time (I don't know what they are). This will be heavier than any before. they said it will be even harder for his blood cells to recover. There is no time line right now they haven't said if it will be one more round or 10 more rounds. They don't know when they will do a bone marrow transplant.
