I recently got more good news on CLL from Dr. Byrd out of Ohio State.
My clone that is resistant to ibrutinib had stopped its relentless growth after almost a two year climb.
I am very grateful.

Wonderful news! Thank you for posting. I'm avoiding my CLL as much as possible - I have the luxury of W & W for now, and am grateful as I leave my worries in the hands of my haemotologist. Despite this, reality bites occasionally and I find solace here. Your blog is perfection - beautifully written - offering readers reliable information and a calm disposition. Thank you. I think I may try meditation and tea tonight also.
How generous of you to have devoted your life to teaching us about true personal patient advocacy and how to take challenges head on with courage and strength beyond the borders of walls and limitations.
