just back from a wonderful dinner out with friends, we've mostly been hiding from germs and not wanting to spend money, but it was great. They toasted my husband for having survived two allogeneic transplants and all that is involved with the process, we could not have come this far without the love and support of family and friends. Another friend of ours was absent, he had a heart transplant less than two weeks ago and was released a week and a half after transplant. He is doing great, but we also know, just because you are home the follow up visits and worries are still there!
For the first time in eleven months my husband has a little over two weeks where he will not need another blood test, wonderful and also a little worrying, when we want to know the numbers all the time.
We are all very thankful for the advances of science, a wonderful support system and a health care plan that has a variety of hospitals from which to choose, even though the annual out pocket expenses might bankrupt you.
Moving forward, one day, one week at a time for everyone fighting this battle.
