Well it was just one month ago yesterday that David got the terrible news and was admitted to the hospital for the worst ride of his life. For 3 weeks he managed to keep his head above the medical waters, fighting Multiple Myeloma, back spasms and pain associated with the compression fractures in his vertebrae, kidney failure due to the level of protein passing through them from the cancer, dehydration, thrush, and a whole host of other symtoms from the medicine that he was on. And now he is home, and he is doing pretty good. There were a few times when we all thought it wasn't gonna happen. But it did.
His physical therapist said yesterday that he has made remarkable strides towards being able to get around a little better. This is all very good progress. He uses a walker, but does go up and down the stairs at his house with Kathy's assistance.
He had number 3 of 4 Chemo treatments today. I haven't yet heard how it went, but I am guessing well.
I am sure that all of you should keep him in your thoughts and prayers, because it's obviously working.
Keep those good thoughts for him,
Marilyn
