Chemo starts at 9pm. He will have 8 days of chemo and they have him admitted for 28 days pending his numbers on day 28.
Talking with the doctor she was very excited that Jackson’s Bone Marrow MRD (Minimal Residual Disease) testing came back negative with no sign of Cancer. So a total of 4 rounds of chemo it is for now. One down and three more to go.
We spoke about Success rate for “low risk” AML today. Dr. Mueller shared That Jackson has a 70% chance of success with the chemo without any relapses. She said that 30% of kids with AML do relapse within the first 1-3 years after the treatment is completed. Praying Jackson is that 70% so he can go on to live a normal childhood!
As for now we celebrate all the answered prayers.
