Well yesterday we had to go to the clinic to check Jasons liver enzymes again. Still way to high to start transplant tomorrow. They are actually going up. So they asked that Jason stop all medications and we go back in on Friday for more lab work to check the levels again.


The plan for now is to not do a bone marrow transplant but to do a peripheral stem cell transplant.


Basically that is putting more mature cells in your body from the donors blood than getting baby cells from the marrow. Better chance of cure, more chance of GVHD (graft vs host disease)


So alot processing in my head right now.


Jason looks and feels great though so that really makes me feel good.

It is spring break this week so him and Austin can fight all day like brothers do. The fighting drives me nuts but i let it slide so boys can be boys
