Labs from today show that Steve's platelets climbed up to 146,000, definitely high enough to receive chemotherapy on Wednesday. Other counts are in range enough, too. Yay!

Beloved and gentle husband, daddy, son, brother, friend, co-worker and neighbor who battled brain cancer -- a glioblastoma in the brain stem that we call Spot. That Damm Spot was released with Steve's peaceful passing on September 7, 2009.
