    • Hello all~
    • I apologize for the lack of communication since we've been in Seattle. It's been rather hectic and ever changing.

      Don is well.

      We've had another donor delay. #4 had a medical deferral, #5 declined. We're on to #6.  Our next transplant date is mid-November.  The blessing is that we'll have more time to get Don on a lower dose of steroid and we're working toward radiation type treatments for his skin to get it in the best condition possible before transplant.  These will be several times a week up to the transplant day.

      He's receiving most excellent care and attention.

      We've been staying with family and plan to move into our own place this coming Saturday.
