I'm 74!

No I'm not 74 years old but the best news ever!  My light chain count went down to 74 from 96 last month.
That is the lowest I have ever been.  I do have a way to go to reach normal which is between 5 and 26.  The second chemo Cytoxan is working and I will see Dr. Schrier next week.  Hopefully he won't increase the dosage but if he does I will accept it and keep fighting.

I feel so peaceful right now knowing that my numbers are going down and that my heart or any other organ is not being jeopardize.  I still deal everyday with the fact that someday I might have to deal with the side effects of the chemo and other drugs I take, but again I will keep fighting.

This was a moment I will cherish!
Love,
Debbie
