Early Xmas pressie

So at day 90 the transplant team would like to over 90% engraftment. That means they would like to see in a sample of Andrew's blood that over 90% of the cells being from Grant Johnson stock. Day 90 is around Xmas for Andrew. Well the good news is that the last test results have Andrew at just over 90% already and that is great. As a result they are starting to slowing wean Andrew off some of the immunosuppressant drugs. So far a some minor GI issues and we are out here today checking that out. His red blood cells are still being difficult. All his counts are hovering at the moment (that is the amount of each in a sample). White blood cells and platelets a bit low but red blood cells very low. This means Andrew is very tired and can't do much but we have managed two days to peek outside and go for a walk up to the park and back. Also means Andrew will probably need another transfusion either today or Monday. They do that when his hemaglobin dips below 8 and it has been just over 8 the last couple of visits. Can't believe it is almost the end of the year. Better get moving on the Xmas letters.  At the rate I manage to update this blog ..... don't hold your breath waiting for our card in the post. At least here in the US it is "politically correct" to wish folks "happy holidays" ... so therefore I guess I have more time :)  We have to attend a class today for what to do etc. after day 100. Bit early but with Xmas and New Year coming up, they have put us in an early class so we are covered. Wishing everyone "happy holidays"!!!
