249 Days!!! Woo Hoo

I am at 249 days after transplant! I have a minor case of gvh of the skin and my liver was getting all worked up for a while! Other than requiring a couple of naps each day, I am doing great. Was on 40 mg of prednisone (yuck - swollen water retention pockets everywhere!!!) but am weaned down to 10 mg per day.

Those of you who are new, there is hope. This disease and the treatment of the disease is a "process". Blessings to all of you. Lori
