Kim, We will be keeping you in our prayers for a full recovery. My mother fought lung cancer for 5 years. She was in remission 3 times when it reared it's ugly head the last time she was just too weak to battle it again and we lost her. I spent the day yesterday with my family. We are kinda spread out so I don't get to see all of them too often. My older sister is in the middle of her chemo treatments now. She is amazing she goes in for her chemo on friday's after she works 1/2 a day. Then she goes home to rest saturday and sunday in order to work on monday. If you ask her how she is doing the answer is always " blessed and happy." She works part time at a "Senior day care". She loves what she does and the people there love her. Her Drs. say that her attitude is what helps her get along as good as she does. We all know it is her faith that keeps her strong. I just wanted to let you know that your story is also an inspiration to me. Maybe we will never meet in person but possibly we will. Keep the good spirits and tear up the roads on your 6 or more upcoming trips.

Merry Xmas and Happy Birthday ! You came as close as you can get, those "Stem cells" are your re-birth. 😁 I went thru a 2x, Hi-dose autologous transplant for "Amyloidosis" in 02 and 03 with 6 weeks in-between. I'm over 16 yrs out as a cancer survivor.
If anything can test your intestinal fortitude and how much Grit you have as well as get you straight with the "Man" and those that have your back it's this procedure.
Set your plans in Stone (unless the Doc. or wife say different)😂, you were heading for or looking to go somewhere before this little setback, so don't let the If', and's & Maybe's get in the way.
A positive attitude, lots of hard work, Smart Doc's/Tech. and "Love" from family and friends made the whole journey in my opinion a "Hell of a Ride" !
Congratulations, "Hook-up and Hit the road" !

I'm lucky to live in the Seattle area and being treated where bone marrow transplants were invented. I have great doctors/team.
Man, you've been through it! Congratulations on 16 years free! Sometimes when my mind starts looking back, I'll come here and look forward. Forward is a good direction. I saw my 3 yo grandson yesterday for the first time in 5 or 6 weeks. I felt a sense of normalcy I haven't felt for many weeks. It felt so good. Getting my old life back and starting a new one, that's where I'm at. Still have a ways to go but each day gets just a little better.
