In 8 months ( 32 weeks ) we have had 44 tests ( we have had more tests than that, but Im not counting the times we were hospitolized ) and our platelet average is 3, so Im finding myself starting to worry more, dont get me wrong we have our good days, and we had the best summer in our whole life, so even if setbacks are happining in our life I try to keep it on a positive note, what Im saying is if you read my threads and you are new, dont nessacearly think what is happining to us is whats is in store for you, it happens this way for some people and some not, I have plenty of people I know and associate with that have over come Leukemia and have gone into remission, dont try to compare that will only get you down. everybody is different, remember there are a lot of factors that determine how someone does, I am allways thinking and praying for everybody here and I appreciate all the thoughts and prayers ya'll send us.....Billy

Hi Billy and Tina,
You guys without a doubt are the biggest fighters I have ever known. And your faith sure stands tall.
There are lessons to be learned from how you all have handled set-backs; this truly demonstrates your faith, hope and prayers. So many of us have seen or experienced the roller coaster ride of this baffling disease; and we hang on for another new high.
That sure was a great drop with the Blasts, hopefully they will stop moving back up and start to see a miracle in the making.
Our Love and Prayers to you all,
Bob and Dru MagicBob
