I am glad you are getting good reports. Me, being thru Chemo & radiation - was a blessing when I received blood work looks great. And your counts are up! Prayers are continuing.

So today was another trip to the hospital. Good news, we hit remission with the first round of chemo. My numbers have improved and things look good.
The not so gooder news, I have another round of inpatient chemo next week to keep it suppressed. And in about 8 weeks will be undergoing a Stem Cell Transplant. Which will have me in the hospital for about 6 weeks. That transplant will wipe out my immune system completely and they will do the transplant, which starts me over like a newborn. I will need all the vaccinations that kids go thru once again. As I said at the start this is a marathon.
Recovery from the transplant can take up to a couple of years to fully recover from. But being healthy and younger, could do better.
They put me in the database and I have some donor matches already, they just want to rule out my sister as a donor. So a whirlwind visit today.

Good news on the remission. Sounds like the stem cell transplant might be tough but should be pretty worth it. Glad to hear you have remission.

 

[Stratman50th]

Good news!
Hang in there brother. We keep you in our thoughts and prayers...

When you get all the kid vaccines again, do you also get the lollipops all over again?

Glad you are doing well.

And the stickers! Definitely go for the stickers!

 

[friendofeeyore]

So happy to hear you are in remission!! Prayers do work!! And mine will continue for you!

 

[FtW Mike]

Chris happy to hear you are in remission. Step one of the plan has been made and now onto step 2.
Don't listen to the rest of these people. If it was me I want it all. No Lollipop and sticker No Shot.

Chris,

That is great news! I can't say it is best possible outcome, but it is close. All steps in the process, but it sounds like the outcome is pretty good.

Let us know if there is anything we can do.

Yes, I get all the lollipops again. Stickers I can save and give out at the Dismeet.....

Great news man!

Still long road ahead but certainly attainable. I've been doing some looking into on the whole stem cell donor program. Interesting stuff to say the least.
