A New Path
After the results of the testing at the end of January showed leukemia was still present, the option of receiving treatment locally was not available. Margy was presented with a new option. This option offers two new medications which have been shown to have a positive effect on the leukemia and has put some patients in remission. Today marks the first day of this treatment, which she is receiving at Johns Hopkins. Please send her prayer wishes and good energy here! She remains positive and strong.
