Clinic 2c

Well, I was able to get out of the hospital yesterday evening.  A kind neighbor came to visit and was able to take me home.  Rough night though.  Too hot.  Annie cried throughout the night.  This is really taking its toll on our family.

Angela is such a trooper,  but you can only do so much for so long.  Thank you to everyone who has called and offered help.  This really made a difference for her.

This morning I am in Clinic 2C to have another stem cell harvest.  They just drew blood for lab work.  They have to check certain levels before they will start the harvest.  We will see how the harvest goes as outpatient verses inpatient.

Angela's mother drive me up and has been kind enough to stay for a while until things get going.  Angela's dad is going to take me home when I am finished.

I just found out that the shot I had the other night for the stem cell harvest can cause abdominal cramps and diarrhea.  This may have been the "bowel blockage" that I thought I had the other night.  I will probably have to have the shot again.  Too much fun.

Thanks again for all your prayers and faith.  We feel it and are strengthened by it.  We will keep striving to do what Father in Heaven would have us do.  We know he will bless us as we do so.  He is in charge and we will follow His plan for us.
