So today I didn't go (for the first time) to Tom's appointment as his brother went and I took our other guests out to Old Town Sac where we were going to meet up for lunch. Tom then called me with the news that his counts have gone down more and the doctor was postponing his spinal tap chemo treatments until he could find out what was going on. To do this he's having Tom go in on Friday for a bone marrow biopsy to see what's causing the count issue. The doctor suspects one of two things: 1. the leukemia may be back or 2. Tom may have chronic graft vs. host.
Needless to say, we didn't go get lunch, Tom's now sick to his stomach nerve wise ... and what was shaping to be a rather energetic and exciting day has taken one hell of a turn. Now we just need to refocus and keep our minds busy for the next week until we know what's going on and have a game plan to focus on.
In other news, I'd arranged a surprise for Tom which was that last night a great friend of his from England flew in to spend the week with us!!!! Let's hope that having Will here will keep Tom preoccupied.
