I was able to make it out to the Cowboys v. Cardinals game this past Sunday to tailgate with Kevin, Brooke, JJ and a bunch of other friends! We had a great time and it was cool to be able to tailgate at a professional event, pretty much what you would expect beer and bbq's but with way too many Cowboys fans. If you didn't know better you might have thought that you were in Dallas. I have to give them credit Cowboys fan sure do travel. The game was exciting with the Cardinals pulling off the win in OT! And it was hard, yet funny, to watch the hoards of Cowboy fans make the walk of shame through the parking lot to their cars following the loss...
As far as updates go, I met with Dr. Reeder today to get the results of my most recent tests and to find out the official schedule of my transplant. Dr. Reeder was very pleased with the results of the tests especially after everything that took place last week and he is feeling optimistic about the transplant. I will be heading in tomorrow once they have a room available for me to get situated and started on pre-meds and hydration. The chemotherapy will then begin Thursday and last for seven days with one day off at the end before they re-introduce my stem cells on the 24th. After that it will be all recovery time with daily blood works tests as we wait for my blood counts to return to a healthy level so that I can be discharged.
Thanks again to all of you for your support! I will try and update my blog while I am in the hospital, but if I am unable to I will have my mom or Jim type something up so that everyone knows what is going on!
