Surprise!

Well I haven't had any appointments with the doctors yet but was very surprised to learn that the results of the BMB indicates that the cells in the bone marrow are almost all my donor (Grant's) cells. Reason why I am surprised is because they told me they thought the opposite would be the case. So until I have had word from the medical team .... I don't really know what is happening or what is happening next .... wonder if they do!
Feeling positive though.

Chemo Round 3 done!

Just completed round 3 (hoping it is the last one) of chemo and still awaiting results of bone marrow biopsy and to hear what the medicos have up their sleeve. Preliminary results of the BMB are encouraging ... they show a significant decrease in disease. It takes time to grow cells etc. to get chimerism results etc. apparently. Tried to do without the anti nausea drugs on day 1 ... bad move. Ordered it directly into the pic line before all else from then on in. Wonder drug.
