It has been wonderful living again at 112 Tucker farm road these past few days. Both Thursday and Friday I spent most of the days in the clinic but I have the Weekend off. After two months in the hospital I was pretty deconditioned but each day I am getting more stamina. Jim and th kids have been great. They are taking wonderful care of me. It is strange to think I haven't been here since mid December.
Tomorrow brings me back to the clinic. The plan is for me to continue these visits until I go back to the hospital for the next phase (either the bone marrow transplant or another round of chemotherapy to keep me in remission.) The next phase will be determined by the donor and my overall health. As of today the medical team is still working on the donor but has some good prospects. One thing the team is watching with me is my heart rate which has been on the high side. They did several tests on Friday ruling out several potential serious complications. It looks like the most likely culprit is the deconditioning.
So the plan today is to enjoy a rejuvenating day with the family. I like that plan!
Love Maureen
