24th Day

Well, his numbers are stable. Lonnie asked them about going home for a long weekend and she said maybe in a couple of weeks. I thought being at the clinic for 6 to 8 hours was long. But 4 hours is just as long. But we sit there and laugh and watch TV. alot of the patients up there don't do alot of laughing. their all sleeping or not saying a word. I guess we have a good attitude. There's a young girl up there, must be in her early 20's. She goes in a room that is isolation. I'm not sure why she goes in there. But I'll find out. We had a black man that was transfer to some where. I talked alot to his wife. He was having a lot of problems and couldn't get his transplant. She was really a nice lady. I met her while Lonnie was in the hospital. We're slowly meeting people up there and learning about them. We've met some people that is using their own stem cells. There's alot we don't understand. I guess Lonnie's stem cell was to far in to the disease. Mom, don't freak out. His just didn't work. Well tomorrow and sunday we go in early, monday at 1:30 and tuesday 7:30. We have to go in early on tuesday so they can check to see his prograf level. He stated the pills this week and they have to the levels once a week. see ya

You guys keep that good attitude! Glad Lonnie is doing good so far. I'm sure it's still really stressful for both of you..... Saw Dee yesterday at the CEU class & got to tell her I just got my disability started. She was real tickled for me. If she had not encouraged me to apply so many times I don't know what I'd have done. I think it started just in time because I'm not doing too good lately. Can't get over this last flareup. Hope I get back to normal soon. Did 2 peoples hair last Friday and wiped out because I'm still so weak. It's strange. I just do the best I can and appreciate good days...... well, I'll still keep you in my prayers. Keep your chin up! Love you! Renee'
