"Just keep doing what you are doing, and come back in 40 days."
The meeting with the Doctor was a brief one. "All of your numbers look great. They are coming along just fine and are right where we would expect them to be at 60 days." Apparently, this time period that I am in (the first 100 days) is a big waiting period. They don't do any cancer related tests until day 100. They just watch my immune system rebuild all along the 100 days. Right now, my immune system is in it's "teenage years" and it is expected to continue to "mature" over time. All of my food-related and crowd-related restrictions are still in place. All of my food must be cooked. No raw vege's, peel apples and peaches. Don't go to Walmart at it's most crowded times.
So, the next big date is around Oct 20. At that time, we will measure the protein in my urine which is an indication of the cancer activity in my bone marrow. bye for now, George
