Back from the Brink

Update posted by oscar5661 alampi

How wonderful to see Joe feeling like himself, enjoying a first beer in a long time and being home. We made it up to Baltimore to meet with the transplant team and to tour the place that will be our home for a few months. We then received some unwelcome news that Joe will need to undergo another round of chemotherapy. He needs to be cancer free before he can be allowed to get a transplant. This last round of therapy really took a chunk out of him and with getting the flu from me it took him a long time to bounce back. He has the determination but his body is tagging along. We pray that this next course goes down easy. For now I am trying to plan fun things and give him good things to eat. Next week he starts his infusions and then we have to wait and pray that he comes back to normal and the biopsys come back clean. We will then be on the road to Baltimore and a new birthday for my Joe.
