some good news

Alright just had some good news the hematologist just came in and informed me that I had zero cancer cells in my spinal cord during the procedure yesterday, and that I am responding to treatment nicely with the small amount of Chemo they injected yesterday called intrathecal cytarabine. I came in with a White blood cell (wbc) count of 54000 and it is currently down to 17000. The other this is that 80% of my WBC's where lymphoblasts (the immature lymphocytes that fight infection) while a normal person only has about 5% lymphoblasts. currently after treatment my lymphoblasts are now at 55% the hematologist is very confident of this and Im counting it as a win for my day.
