It's just abut noon here now. We had a delay as Scott's surgeon had to tend to a trauma case. He was finally taken back to OR about 11:30 and we're just waiting for word of a successful "deporting".
More later.

Diagnosis and treatment
Scott was diagnosed with T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (T-cell A.L.L.) on 01/25/07. T-cell is an aggressive leukemia and Scott is considered a 'high risk' case. His white blood count at diagnosis was 89,000, he had a mediastinal mass and had also developed sudden and severe petechiae due to lack of platelets. There was no CNS involvement.
His chemotherapy treatment began on 1/26/07 and is a 108-week-long protocol of high dose chemotherapy, steroids and cranial radiation.
Scott is treated by Doctor Tebbi at St Joseph's Childrens Hospital in Tampa.

Unnerving, I am sure - at least Scott was not the trauma case, thank goodness.
I know the waiting was not easy but like Carolyn said at least the taruma was not Scott. It has been a long hard all most 3 years.
Hope things are going to be great now.
Love To All
