Andrew's journey through his second bone marrow transplant. Nearly 10 years ago he underwent his first transplant with David (his twin brother) as donor. This time he is having a non myeloablative transplant and Grant (his other brother) is his donor. His treatment is taking place through Stanford in California. This is to cure Andrew - go Andrew.

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.
