Dear Patti,
Thank you for your kind words. I hope in some way I did help when you and Dean started this uncertain journey. But always keep the faith - things can surely turn around as they did for Don.
We are going back to NIH next week for Don's 6 month BMB. No problems, just part of the research.
He is doing very well although we are going to need to do some testing for his dysfunctional platelets. His hernia is so big we are going to have to name it at some point
but we need to figure out what to do about his platelets first - not only for his hernia but also in case he should need some emergency surgery sometime in the future. The count was over 100,000 last check but that doesn't mean much if they don't clot.
I pray for you, Dean, Beth, Earl and all our Marrowforums family best wishes and God's Grace in the future.
Please feel free to call anytime - I've missed talking to you. And thanks again for your kind words.
God Bless and (((hugs))),
Sally
