Treatment to remission (again) started today!

The miraculous drug arrived in Adelaide and was administered at 3:00pm today to Lauren via drip. Now go and attack those rogue cells you life saving drug!!! This drug being non-evasive binds itself to a certain protein found in the rogue (blast) cells and destroys them/envelopes them - basically gets rid of them. Have to find out more about the process these operate in.

We need her back in remission first before we can proceed with the stem cell transplant. Cord blood for transplant has been sitting waiting for transplant in Adelaide since ~ June 3. All ready to go!!
