I hope everyone is having a wonderful day! We are finished with week one! Dad did great this first week, he's even been exercising more then when he was at home! He walked over one mile ever day ( 27 laps up and down the units hallway is a mile and he walks 30!). Yesterday was an exciting day as dad finished his last chemo ever!! Some might say its ambitious to say "ever" but I am so secure in knowing that God has healed him! Yesterdays chemo was real intense; it was only 45 min long and he had to be eating ice the whole time to protect his mouth. And Dad was so happy to have Omar Giritli come visit and spend some time with him! Since Thursday night dad started feeling crappy and its slowing progressing. The doctors have warned us that week #2 is supposed to be a nasty one, so please be praying for this week in particular, for lots of physical and emotional strength! Today is the actual "Transplant." The nurses have been going through a process all day of slowly unfreezing his stem cells and then administering them through a transfusion. So happy to say that we are slowly but surely on our way to recover! God is so good and he has held our hands through out this entire process! LOTS OF PRAYERS!!
