RD Update

RD had an appointment with the pulmonary doc today. He reviewed the CTscan with us that he had in June and said mostly what the oncologist told us. He ordered lots of bloodwork and an echocardiogram, he will have that on Thursday. RD asked him if he would ever breathe better and the doc said that he hoped he would get some better but didn't think that he would ever be as well as RD wanted.

While we were in the lab they went ahead and tested his blood for the Procrit shot and it was 11.4 this week from 10.8 last week....YAY!!!!!!!!!! We are hoping he hits the 12 mark soon.

He has an appointment for a CTscan on August 2nd and then an appt. with the oncologist on August 4th. His pulmonary doc will get a copy of the CT results and will call us if he needs to see RD before his appt. in September.

Please keep us in your prayers, we appreciate them so much!!
