The Journey Continues, 10 weeks and 3 days from transplant!!

Just a really quick update:  Wednesday's appointment went really well other then the fact of hurry up and get there to wait and that has become quite normal.

We did see several of the other people there that were on the bone marrow transplant floor when Richard was there.  Most of them were moving and looking really good.  Some of them were still wearing their mask.  You will recall Richard shed his quite early in the game.

His counts were up to 2500, after four shots the week before.  They switched some meds and he will finally be coming off of the steroids, when he takes the last pill.  I believe that will be tomorrow.  He will be down to nine pills a day and most of those twice a day.

This is progress though.  One step and one day at a time!!!  God is in control and He has given Richard a gift of more time.  Only He knows the days that Richard has.  We are grateful for what God has brought Richard through and praise HIS HOLY NAME!!

Deuteronomy 32:4

New International Version (NIV)

⁴ He is the Rock, his works are perfect,
   and all his ways are just.
A faithful God who does no wrong,
   upright and just is he.
