Bone marrow went great and I just woke up about 11AM, eating some lunch and feeling good. Stem cells go in about 1PM. This will take about 30 minutes but will probably put me back to sleep. Could not have breakfast before marrow so some soup tastes real good.
Stem cells have gonee in and they are supposed to start doing there thing.Took about 30 minutes. Staff and nurses came in and sang happy birthday but I was under so much sedation I really didnt appreciate everthing. Still feel sedated but getting more awake.. Need to drink more fluid.White counts are expected to decline through Fri reaching a low of about .3 which is way below normal and means that my immune system is for all practical purposes is gone for a time. I will probably feel bad at that time but will start gradually getting better. while this is happening I may be getting mouth sore or I may not. They are going to give me Kelvance which is supposed build up mucus in mouth and prevent sore. We'll see.
Still feel good and going to keep fighting back!!!!!!!

Hi Ya'll,
Hey, this Happy Birthday is very good - just as long as you don't have to add another year, right?
Move over - I'm gonna bring Jimmy up there (just kidding). He has severe Gout in his right hand. Franklin, you know how painful that stuff is, don't you?
I know what a good fighter you are
(private joke)!
Ya'll take good care of each other we'll "talk" again real soon.
Love,
Linda and Jimmy
