Day 311 BMT 101

Hello,

Well, we are still out here in Buffalo. So far, the results of the bone marrow biopsy are all good. While there has been an increase in the percentage of blasts, they are still within normal range. The reason we are still here is that Friday morning, day 100, Rita woke up with a slight fever. Due to that, the doctor would not release us to go home. Rita did not need to be admitted so we are back at the hotel. We have an appointment tomorrow morning (Sunday) and hope that they will let us check out of the hotel and come home tomorrow. We'll just have to wait and see. Rita is feeling pretty good and her temperature has returned to normal. They have taken more blood samples and testing to see if thay can determine the cause of the fever. We may or may not know the results tomorrow but still hope to come home as long as her fever dosen't come back.

I know this is short but there really isn't much else to say. This is just how it goes with this process. Its the old "one day at a time" thing. We are doing good and are optimistic that we will be home tomorrow.

Take care, Dave & Rits
