New Drug Is A Go

Logan has been given the green light to begin this new chemo drug on Monday.  This first day is going to be a long one as Logan will need to have labs drawn multiple times throughout the day to test how his body is processing the drug.  We expect to be at the clinic from 7am to 6pm on Monday and will need to go back again for more labs on Tuesday and Thursday this week.  After the first week he will have clinic appointments every Monday.

Each drug cycle lasts 21 days.  Logan will get a week off from the drug in which time they will do a bone marrow biopsy to check for remission.  We are being told to expect at least two cycles (so 2 months) before we start to see improvement.
