Almost 2 years old

A visit with Dale's primary care provider yesterday, confirmed that he still needs to rest as much as possible. Although he may look fine, a bone marrow transplant coupled with 1300 hours of chemotherapy takes time to sort of getting back to "normal." He will never be really heathy, just a bit better than the day before, hopefully. Chemotherapy, by itself, is cruel to the body, and Dale deals with those effects daily. He goes in small increments of time, rests, and tries again. He paces himself in his daily tasks he choses to do, but can't be expected to do much.

Dale will have the quarterly tests and check ups in the next few weeks as he approaches the two year make since transplant.
