The results are in! Brenan's bone marrow biopsy revealed that the chemotherapy is indeed working and the presence of lymphoblasts (cancer) went from 80% down to 2%. And I'm sure that last 2% is well on its way to being dead and gone! The doctor said, pending a blood test on Sunday to see if his blood count is at a good level, that Brenan will soon be released from the hospital. He's even throwing out words such as "remission." But let's not get ahead of ourselves. We're all just so happy that Brenan's body is responding so well to treatment.
If and when Brenan gets released from the hospital, he'll most likely continue outpatient chemotherapy for a short time. We're not sure what the next step is from here but as soon as we talk to the doctor tomorrow, we'll let you know what the plan is!
