Day 1970
Congratulations on Day 100! It is a milestone to celebrate. My husband is celebrating Day 1970 today from his stem cell transplant. This transplant was auto and to cure the NHL . . . it also served to set him up for the tMDS, but I guess we would have to say that without the transplant he probably wouldn't still be here 1970 days later, so it's all to the good. More or less.
We have been in the blood cancer fight for over 12 years now, and a big part of what keeps us going is positive attitude. We celebrate things. We celebrate Mondays (we got married on a Monday), we celebrate the sun rising . . . and setting . . . and we celebrate Day 1970. And Day 1971. And Day 1972. And being here to continue putting one foot in front of the other, one day after the other.
Sometimes we have had to stretch to find something to celebrate . . . but we find it and we celebrate it. Today, we will celebrate your Day 100 . . . or I guess today it's Day 102 we're celebrating with you. Enjoy!
