More..wow..Day 9

Ok,ok…as earlier written, ‘tweaks/corrections’ will come..and these are:
As corrected in the last entry..she got her plasma ‘siphoned’..so it would not fight against the incoming ‘fresh’ stem cells..she now has no antibodies! But all good til tomorrow. We also learned the stem cells will come from the donor’s bone marrow, and not from the red blood build up, BUT it is basically a parallel issue or result. The mucky muck machine that separated the Becky’s plasma from the red blood, will actually ‘spin’/separate the stem cells from the bone marrow donation. This process will be done tomorrow AM, before the transplant.
Becky resting well, very calm about tomorrow. No nausea, feeling overall pretty good. AND Abbey is Mom’s cheerleader, she said, “Mom, today is a new beginning, the old has been taken out and the new is coming. In two years, we’re gonna go to Hawaii and Europe. Just keep thinking about that.”
So. We press on because have hope..Our hope is in the Lord.
Celebrate Life..don’t forget to how to have fun..there is much to do..
Thank you so very much for your love and prayers..
Bill & Becky
