Starting a new journey

Just heard last night that I have a donor for my stem-cell transplant! I will be heading back to Barnes to begin my "Conditioning" chemotherapy tomorrow, Sunday. It is a seven day chemo, one day of rest and then I receive the stem-cells and recover in hospital. I should be at Barnes for 4-6 weeks and then in St Louis for an undetermined amount of time.

Thank you all for your continued support, it truly means so much!
