Remission - Praise God!!
Joe got the call today from the doctor that he's in REMISSION - No signs of Myeloma in his bone marrow!! Just the Christmas present we've all been praying for!
What's next?
Playing with Great Grandson, John (8.5 months old), as frequently as possible.
Monday, Dec 22 - He goes back to see the regular oncologist to find out when his maintenance starts.
Wednesday, Dec 24 - He'll be at Hood's Automotive & Towing for the Annual Christmas Luncheon from 1 to 4 pm - come by and see him!
Mid-January - He has his Florida fishing trip with his brothers.
After that, he'll be returning to work part-time.
Did I mention his hair is also starting to grow back. He's got quite the peach fuzz going :)
Thank you for all your prayers and support during 2014. It's been quite the year, but God is in control and apparently Joe still has important work here for him!
Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and God Bless!
