BMT today

Dale has done well in the last two days. Final chemotherapy was yesterday with no incidents. Today the bone marrow transplant happens. Nurse tells me it is uneventful. They bring in the machine, hook him up and drip in 13 bags of his harvested stem cells which should take about three hours. Since it is Dale's stem cells, the only reaction could be from the preservatives and there is medications to help with that. I am hoping it is uneventful.

Dale is excited that he thinks his beard is beginning to come back, although that means shaving again. What a delight!
