Just got a phone call. Dh's doctor has confirmed that the lump behind his ear is not linked to the leukemia. His white blood count is up a bit, but she thinks this is due to the infection that has triggered the lymph gland swelling. His haemoglobin and platelets are better than last time.
He has a sore bottom as they took a bone marrow sample but all is well.
Thank god, and thank you all for the good thoughts and prayres etc
