Dads Home !!!

Hello everyone!
     Yup, you read correctly, Dad is home!! On Wednesday morning, Day 20, dad was sent in for a minor surgery to take off his triple catheter and then he was home by 5pm! I want to thank everyone for their support, love, and prayers during this crazy season in our lives. The storm is over and now its time to rebuild. Dad will be going to the Sylvester center 3 to 4 times a week and then less frequent where they will keep a close eye on his progress and help him to rebuild. For the next two weeks dad is pretty limited and will be home, but we were excited that we were all able to be together yesterday for the 4th of July! Once his immune system is back to normal (Doctors estimate 2 to 3 months) he will have no limitations and be back to his normal life. Thank you all again for your continuous prayers! I ask that you pray for My dads body to be strong during this rebuilding stage!
   

Here's a little visual on the extremes the chemo took on my dads body. The picture on the left was taken today and the picture on the right was taken last summer after his first set of chemo.

Transplant Day #18

Hello everyone,
     I want to thank everyone for all your prayers and concerns! It is so amazing to have so many people behind us! Thank you to all of you at Dance Town for constantly checking in with me or joey to see how hes doing. Thank you to all that have been visiting: Omar, Diego, Frank, Hildy, Henry, Maribell, Rossy, Dan, Uncle Tony, Tia Ella, Kaki, Gaby, and my grand parents Lala and Pipo. You have no idea what a difference it has made for him to have your company!
     This past week was a hectic one. We had a couple scary nights were dads heart rate was at over 200 (the norm being 80). They gave him medicine to to normalize his heart rate until the cardiologist came. Through this, they found out he has Wolf Parkinson White Syndrome. The name is scarier then what it really is! In other words, they would need to do a minor arthroscopic surgery to a vessel in his heart. This would have to be done later on in the year because he cannot have surgery until his immune system is 100%.
     Please continue praying for physical and emotional strength. Its been a rough ride but its almost over! Hopefully dad will be home at the end of this week! feel free to visit him at the Sylvester Center. God Bless!

These are pictures from when dad was given the medication to stabilize his heart rate. He was feeling better and decided it would be a good time to do pay roll on the computers he set up in his room. You could imagine the nurses were not in agreement ! lol
