Results...

Hello Friends and Family,

Sorry about not posting recently. We've had a pretty busy last several days.

The Bone Marrow Aspiration report is in and once again we are thankful that the pathologist remarks include the words: "No morphologic evidence of acute leukemia." The six BMA's that Trudy has had since about the eighth week of her treatment have included these words. They demonstrate that right up to this moment she is responding well to the treatments...for that we are greatly thankful and we pray that she will continue to respond accordingly and that the Leukemia will stay away...and never rear its head again. We also pray that Trudy will continue to recover her strength, that her immune system will continue to normalize, that disease and all other forms of cancer will stay away from her.

Trudy has been going to Tioga High School this week in preparation of her return to the classroom in just a few short weeks. She has straightened, organized, cleaned, and even assembled (new computer desk). She has been able to take on this busyness and hold up with a manageable tiredness. We add to the prayer list that God would also give her the stamina for day-to-day exertion of teaching students for five periods a day.

Again, we thank you for the prayers, the love, and the concern. Each is needed, felt, and appreciated.

Blessings,
Trudy and Robert
