Philippians 4:4 Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice. This blog is dedicated to updating family and friends regarding my wife, Renee, and her battle with Lymphoplasmacytic Lymphoma.(Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia) This is a non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, which is non-aggressive. She also has hyperviscosity syndrome, which sometimes accompanies this cancer. For family pictures: http://picasaweb.google.com/hemric

Praise to the Great Physician
I had my 6 month oncologist visit on September 30, 2009. My blood counts all came back normal and my IgM level came back better! The level was down to 504. Dr. Olajide said that the cancer is dormant or completely gone. The elevated IgM level could be a result of inflammation, or a few dormant cancer cells. The only way to ascertain is to have a bone marrow biopsy which she doesn't recommend at this time. Next visit in 6 months. Yeah! The Lord has blessed me with good health, and we are grateful to Him.
