AML: Day + 8

It's been a long couple of days, but things are going to get better.

Jon was hospitalized on Thursday due to terrible pain when he swallowed. This is 'normal' but Jon's pain was severe. He is now on a constant drip of pain meds.  So the pain is being well-managed. Due to the pain, Jon's been unable to eat, drink or swallow any meds by mouth.

Jon's counts have bottomed out. So he will most likely be in the hospital until his counts start to rise since right now his body can't heal. That could be a week or more. But he's in good hands.

Otherwise Jon is good. Your prayers have helped - his nausea has completely disappeared.

I head home today to play with my babies (and work) for the next 10 days. Jon's mom Crys is on her way here.

We love you all. Thanks for the prayers and keep sending them our way.
Andy
