* home to Boston, daughter in remission
Posted on February 24th, 2010 by doug. Filed under daughter, news.
My daughter is in remission from AML type M4. She is coming off a ventilator she's been on for 38 days now, in an ICU in California.
I'm leaving tomorrow after six weeks out with her. That's good – I miss being home, I miss my family in MA. I am so glad my daughter is better enough that I can see leaving.
But leaving isn't easy, either.

* visually healthy bone marrow…

Not something you hope to have to hope for…
My daughter has visually more healthy bone marrow than she had 36 days ago when she came into the hospital in crisis. She has at least managed to knock the cancer back and rebuild a bone marrow that is not diseased. More detailed tests will look for any trace at all of cancerous marrow. I'm hoping there will be none to find at all. That would be remission, the first step toward a life outside of a hospital room.
