Some great news yesterday!!! When I got home from taking hubs across the city for blood test, after I brought him home, found out they moved up his appointment with Cancercare from next Monday to yesterday. No bone marrow transplant, or chemo, but found out Brian has MILD Mydeloplatic Syndrome. He has another 2-3 years left!!! We thought he had six months maybe. He will be going on a very expensive drug which will pretty much be covered by insurance to get rid of the excess iron in his blood which can cause heart failure if left too long. He will wear a pump which will infuse the medication over a 24 hour period for 5 days each week. But OH MY GOD, prayers have been answered, we have another 3 years!!! More time for family and friends!! More time to make memories and bask in each other's love. We will make 46 years married then. This is a huge relief for me, and makes me want to LIVE longer!!! There is absolutely NO EXCUSE to smoke!!! I did a little dance this morning - Brian laughed. I said now I don't have to be so nice to you and laughed wickedly. (just kidding, I'm always nice) Today I am getting in some sweets to celebrate!!! Transfusion on Thursday, and then he will be feeling good again, and we will go out to our favourite restaurant and celebrate more!!
Just thought I'd share our fabulous news. I love you all, and love him with all my heart!!!
