As most of you know Cody goes in for an MRI today. We found out a number of things yesterday that we have been waiting to know. First off, Cody is not HAMA! That is unbelievable. Although his number was just under the HAMA threshold it is still under and once we get his liver issues identified and addressed we can proceed with 3f8 treatment. Obviously we will not be heading to New York for the holidays. At least I don't think we will!
Now for the second bit of news. Dr. Fishbine, the doctor that did Cody's liver surgery has suggested a couple of things that he wants checked on this MRI today. He wants the bile duct and arteries checked for possible scar tissue blockage. It's just a couple of possibilities that may be causing his problems. Cody's blood work that was taken on Tuesday came up positive with the "Epstein Bar Virus". Dr. Abu-Gosh believes that he contracted the virus when he was sick with what the whole family had around the Thanksgiving holiday. Cody's little body just couldn't fight it off because his immune system is compromised.
Please pray for good results today. Our little man needs all the help he can get......
Thanks for reading....

Hi Mick,
It's been a while since I checked in...
I'll pray for Cody, and am so so thankful he is not HAMA!!! That's so fantastic. His little body has been through enough without having to deal - yet again! - with another round of chemo.
Best prayers and thoughts for you and your family!

So glad he is not HAMA. I was a lot older than him when I had Mono.
Prayers continue.
We'll keep praying that the news keeps on a positive trajectory!
