Hello Vic,
I finally got tested again (bcr/abl) which showed my number as .01!!! Almost undetectable with 100 mg a day of bosulif. I am doing great with that but just recovered from a bad bronchitis. Also discovered yesterday the reason I felt like staying in bed 24/7 was because my blood pressure was too low! So skipping last night's dose did miracles for me today!!! Taught my Bible study this morning and feel great! Two more times and we'll be done with Search for Significance. Hopefully the ladies I'm teaching are learning how valuable they are! It seems like a slow process with this group. I just plant, and do a little watering, and let Him do the rest. We can choose to be victorious or choose to stay down in the dumps. I choose life! Have a great week and until next time.....be blessed! 18's, Susan F.

I'm much better, getting on with my life, writing, working, traveling..all the things I did before. The only caveats are the on-going side-effects that I've learned to live with (more or less) and having to pay attention to what I do, how I do it and what may arise. And being punctilious about taking the Gleevec, and then the visits to the oncologist which are now down to twice a year. As I grow older, other things are beginning to be bothersome but I suppose that's so completely normal, I shouldn't be surprised. And how are YOU doing?

Very interesting to read about your dancing classes, etc. May all your dreams come true as you continue your journey to live a life well. Blessings, Susan F.

A cml friend of mine, Norman --are you there Norman? Went through those first gleevec trials. I myself suffered through the Gleevec for 5 years before I developed a mutant. We know exactly what you are talking about. How are you now?

If any CMLer reads the article, I'd love to have some feedback. -- -- [CMLHope] A support group of http://cmlhope.com ------------------------------------------------- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CMLHope" group.
