NEW ARTICLE IS PUBLISHED IN MDS NEWS

Sita with her new gift of Lampchop!

I am so excited to share that I have had another article published in MDS News. I was asked last spring to write one for their e-news. After I sent it they asked me if they could publish it in their print copy. Of course I said yes and here it is!

If you click on this link the article is on pages 44-48.

An update on the MDS. I am still getting weekly Zarxio shots to keep my white blood counts up. The Procrit shots can only be given when the hemoglobin is under 10 and it is hovering between 10 and 11. Meanwhile there is a new chemo to be released by the FDA called luspatercept. in April of 2020. the doctors think this should help me since I can no longer use the other two chemos.

I have also lost five teeth this year which we think is a side effect of the chemo. I feel another article coming!

However, I am thankful to be alive and hope all of you have happy and healthy holidays and a wonderful 2020!

Love from Jane and Sita
