Hi guys  sorry it took so long to get an update to you all....the last few dates have been incredibly busy.....on Wednesday we met with the transplant doc and then Thursday got admitted to the hospital to begin her intense chemo, yesterday was day one of chemo and she had a bone marrow biopsy....all went well and she tolerated the first dose of the high dose chemo better than expected  this will be a 6 day course of chemo for this first round then if all goes well we will be able to go home for  a bit before the next round......the process of doing the high dose chemo to get rid of the cancerous cells so they can do the transplant is expected to take 2 to 3 months then she will be in the bigger hospital where they are doing the actual transplant for 6 weeks and then following up with the transplant doc daily for 3 months and progressing from there...the whole process is expected to take about a year.....but then.....if all goes well the chances of it ever coming back are slim  they drew my sons blood on Wednesday and we should know if he's a match or if we need to look further for a donor within a week

we are doing well and have had some light hearted moments too.....one of which was when my 6' 3" big, burly, long haired son asked the transplant doc if he could have a pink princess band-aid and then burst out laughing at the look on the docs face.....(who said yes by the way) ...LOL

I just want to thank you all for all of the support and encouragement you've given us....it means more than you will ever know ((((hugs))))  

Niecey says to tell you all hi.....and that she will be watching the season with us...and she will pick who she wants  to win after she sees what celebs are going to dance    

I will update again soon .....still holding your hands and looking for rainbows as always ((((group hugs))))




 

April I am so glad that there is an "action plan" for our niece and even happier that she tolerated the first round of chemo well.  Hugs to her from me.  I am now keeping my fingers crossed and saying a prayer that your son will be a match.  Always thinking of you all.  What strong children you have raised.  HUGS to them both, you and the rest of your family!!!!
I/We are here for you whenever you need us and I look forward to watching the new season with you and our niece...

From yesterday.
