Here is another update – They finally got all the test results back. Tony has Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), which is the fast acting type. They started chemo treatments today. For the next five days he will receive the treatments via I.V. and pill form. Within the next few days they are going to put him in complete isolations for 30 days – only medical personal will be allowed in his room. Tony did say there will be a window in which we can see him. I told him we come watch him like a monkey in the zoo, as long as he did not fling poo at us. ;-)

I went to see him today, and he looks much better than he did on Saturday ~ whatever infection he has is now gone. Today was also the first day he was up to leaving his room. I ask if he needed any books to read and he held up his bible and told me that was the only book he needed right now. I told him and Lynn that all of you were praying for them; they were humbled and asked me to thank all of you. So, Thank You for taking a few minutes out of your days to ask God to help heal my brother.

With the help of God and the wonderful people at M.D. Anderson I have faith that my brother will beat this, and be back to his pestering self in no time.
Again, Thank You for your prayers.
