Yes, the absence means good things. Vlad is doing well. He's a weaker version of himself but is able to do many things.
He goes to MDA three times a week for now. This week it was Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. On Tuesday, he saw Dr. Alousi, who said he was ahead of the curve, but seemed slightly concerned with some of his numbers. On Thursday he had his bone marrow biopsy (Day 30). Vlad does his infusions at home on the other days. Today's numbers: WBC 3.8; RBC 3.87; hemoglobin 11.6; platelets 105; absolute neutrophils 2.24. Decent numbers.
We've quietened the social life because it kind of tires him and it throws off the rhythms that make the new normal work. There may be poker Saturday night. (This is a low-key game, not much drinking, only one of them smokes. He could handle that.) And Sunday at Nezhinskys for dinner.

Glad to see your update and know all is well.Keep up the good work Vlad! I got a permanent cast on my wrist this morning. Gives me a little more freedom, especially with my fingers. Feeling pretty good. Love to both of you, Mom
