Day 69 - 31 days left

thinking to much


a couple taking off for a canoe ride








I know it's been a while, so I have alot to share. The blood work has been up and down. Lonnie hasn't needed any blood nor platelets. They did a blood test that's called chimerism ( not sure if that's how to spell it, but i think it's close ). This test tells if the donor's stem cells is working and if Lonnie's is non cancer. Well! The first one showed that the donor's were 61% and no cancer cells. Yeah! The second one was different. The donor's stem cells were 17%, which is not good at all. Lonnie was suppose to start tapering down on his prograf pills. They called us and told us not to. When we went in Monday they told us all this and said that Lonnie is going to need more stem cells. So tomorrow we'll be going in for more stem cells and maybe more blood. Hopefully his body will except these stem cells without any problems like the last time. Well enough of that for now. We've been going twice a week for his appointments. On the weekends, we've been to Stone Mountain and Challahoochee River, where we must of walked 5 miles. The last 2 straight up...We can go to places as long as there is no crowd, so we go at opening...Works out great. Hardly no one around. Then there's been times when we can go home, when they let us. That was nice. Here's some pictures of our outtings..
