TUESDAY, JANUARY 28TH, 2020 Sorry for the delay everyone. We had been waiting a long time for the test results of the MRD blood test. The results came approximately 2 weeks after the initial projected date, so the wait was certainly a tough one, but it was worth it. Chris' test came back negative after examining over 650,000 blood cells. There was no evidence of a DNA sequence matching the original cancer detected. This means that there will be no bone marrow transplant right now, and the percentage of relapse is hopefully much smaller than previously anticipated. The plan now is to continue scans every three months and regular blood tests approximately every two weeks. We've been enjoying our time as a family since the news came in, and are hoping we've seen the last of this horrible disease. Thank you everyone for all of your support, thoughts and prayers! Love, The Berges
