Update/Thank you

February 27th, 2012

Hello everyone
Just want to keep you all updated. Joe is doing ok. His proteins and potassium is back to normal, yeah!! Chemotherapy is still aggressive and he is taking it day by day. One day he feels weak and the next he feels ok. Tomorrow he goes for chemo once again. Lets pray for good results because that means one step closer to a stem cell transplant. We thank you all for your support, words can't explain how grateful Joe and his family and friends are to have you all as his support team. 


Thank you all for the generous donations, kind word, prayers and hugs.
God Bless You all!!
