**Update 3/4** Prayers for my Aunt Please
I am not sure if you remember a couple of months back, that I had told you that my aunt was diagnosed with leukemia.
Well, yesterday was her last day of chemo!! 
Here is her lastest update from her online carepage (sorry it is a little long):
I just have to get this off my chest and hope you all don't mind listening to me. Today is a very emotional day for me. I will be leaving the hospital for the last time (at least according the my outlook). I will miss the nurses here as they have been so wonderful and supportive. The doctors and residents have been great also, aside from that one that didn't have great communication skills. The other side to my concerns is that with the chemo being done comes the worry if this leukemia will return. I have a positive attitude that I have beaten this, but deep down inside you always have this little thought of will it come back again. It is not a thought that I keep there all the time, but it does pop up every now and than. I will continue keeping my care page going with what is happening, bacause as you know I may be going home today, but I will be going back and forth to the clinic while my counts go down. I will probably have platelet and blood transfusions along the way until everything comes back up again. I am so looking forward to my counts coming up, staying up and not being knocked down again and getting back to a normal life! I can't express what a great support you have all been and how you have all kept me going. Thru all this treatment, today has to be the day that I am sheddng the most tears, emotional tears of joys and tears of fear. I love you all for being here for me and hope that I continue to get your support. I better stop now before my tears short circuit this laptop keyboard Time to go shower and pack my bag and get my A.. out of here, I love you all and remember to keep smiling
Many prayers to her, that the leukemia will not return
**Update 2/27**
Well, today we found out that my aunts leukemia is back 
She will now have a bone marrow transplant. Thank God that my dad is an exact match. We will find out soon when exactly he will be flying to Washington so that he can the procedure done
Would you mind some more prayers?
**Update 3/4**
Today my aunt will be starting her chemo treatment -- Here is an update from her Carepage:
The plan is to start treatment on Tuesday with heavy dose of chemo twice a day for five days. As long as I don't develop any fevers I will be able to come home and stay home as my counts go down. I will of course be back and forth to the clinic to get checked and have any blood or platelet transfusions as needed. If this knocks out the leukemia I will than get prepared for transplant. I do not know what that procedure will be yet as we have to wait for our meeting with the transplant doctor. There are two kinds of transplants, a full transplant and a mini transplant and I can't tell you all the details as I do not know them yet. This did come as a shock to Steve and myself as I was feeling pretty good and things seemed to be OK. I guess we got it at the start, but apparently I grows quickly as I have a lot of blasts in my blood. I am very positive that I will beat this and get on with life.
