Five weeks out

Hello Family and Friends:

I am now five weeks out from ending my Chemo regimen and starting to see a difference in how I feel. Last week I had my one month check-up and it went well. My platelets are back up to normal as is my potassium. My hemoglobin came up a little to 9.1 and is climbing. It may take 6 months for that to get back to normal. The CEA blood test to detect cancer came out negative so at present I am cancer free. I have my next check-up in three months to see how I am progressing. I am feeling stronger, able to taste many foods again and starting to get back into the stream of life going to meetings and seminars etc. I'll keep you posted as things unfold.



Love, Dad (Al)
