Gettin' by

It seems Troy can't get too comfortable at home these days. He went back into the hospital about a week ago after having a few dizzy spells at home. Turned out, his blood pressure was drastically dropping every time he stood up. So, they checked him in, messed with his blood pressure medication for a few days, and have finally gotten him somewhat stabilized. However, it wasn't without a cost - they gave him more chemo, which upset his stomach something fierce - but that is under control now as well.

So, he has been there over a week now - and things are looking up, but they are keeping him there until his counts come back up from the chemo (which is always a long process). They are hoping to move Troy to the donor transplant soon and have begun the necessary tests to make sure he is fit to do so (the ONE advantage to already being in the hospital!)

Thank you for all of your thoughts and positive energy - IT IS HELPING! Although he is not in the best situation to accept visitors at this time, please keep sending cards, emails, texts, and phone calls - all of which help Troy get through the day!
