September 10th

Well this is just like dejuve all over again I am back in Ann Arbor getting a shot of chemo to prep me for another bone morrow transplant which will happen in 5 more days.  This time I will be getting the stem cells from an unrelated Donner that is 19 years old Sharen will  keep track of me to make sure I don't start going after 20 year old woman and listening to load rap music or letting my pants hang down to my knees with my butt hanging out.  How cool is it that someone 19 years old is willing to be a stem cell done

 

When we found out that I needed another transplant it always seemed way off in the distance but all of a sudden the time is here and we came to Ann Arbor and we look back and are amazed how fast the time has passed.  We needed to get here by 6:30 and that is in the morning a time I wasn't aware of for a long time.  That was when they reinserted my Neostar which looks like a tassel coming out of your breast with 3 tubes which allowes them to give and take at the same time.  then it was off to the lab for about 15 tubes of blood for testing and at long last I was admitted into the hospital and the first thing I saw when I looked at the marker board in my room was a Welcome back to 8A and about every 10 or 15 minutes one of the nurses from my last visit came in to say hello and welcome back.  It isn't nice to be here for more treatments but its very nice to have people remember us and be happy to see us.

 

Please continue to pray for us and may God continue to bless us all.
