Quick Update

I only have time for a quick update right now but will have more details later.  I just wanted to let everyone know that we have been told that Chan is being put on the arm of the clinical trial that we were hoping for!

The big picture right now is that Chan will only need to be on treatments for 2 1/2 years instead of 3 1/2, his treatments are going to be less harmful to him in the long run, and the down side is he now has 6 inpatient treatments that will last about 3-4 days a piece every three weeks starting Easter.

If everything goes according to plan (which apparently is quite rare), Chan will be in Maintenance (less frequent hospital visits and less medication) by the time the baby comes and school starts!
