Apr 23: Ride the Roller Coaster of A.L.L.

After a substantial discussion with my oncologist Tue afternoon, I've decided to put CAR-T on hold. We're going to monitor and see if and how fast the blasts increase. It is possible my body will mount a defense. There are a couple of other less intense options other than CAR-T, also that might be tried. 

Just not ready for a 2 week hospital stay and 60 days of 24/7 "house arrest," having to stay within 50 miles of the hospital and have a 24/7 caregiver. 

Whatever the medical level of involvement, from the start my hope has been in God and his good intention, whether through medical means or in spite of it. Waiting and seeing what happens now makes that a little more real for me. 

Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him out of them all.

Psalm 34:19 

I am righteous only through Jesus. He will deliver me, whether here on earth, or ultimately, eternally.
