Let's see some real RPF legwork, we used to do this in a day. Help a member in trouble

Good morning, RPF Family.

Sorry I haven't been able to provide an update sooner, so here it goes:

After 4 rounds of chemo and the stem cell transplant, she is in FULL remission. The last bone marrow biopsy showed zero traces of any leukemic cells! We are day +64 from transplant and she is still very weak. SHe is on so many immunosuppressants and we are trying to prevent her from developing something called, "Graft vs. Host Disease" which can result from stem cell transplants. Doc says if the leukemia is going to return, data shows it would likely return within 6 months, so that is our next goal. October 10 would be the 6 month mark. I have returned to work, part time, since she is still too weak to be left alone with the kids for too long.

I wanted to personally thank you all for everything you've done. You've given your time, prayers, and hard earned $$.... some of you sent letters. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I'm sorry I did a poor job keeping you all updated, but I should be on here more frequently from now on. It has been an absolute nightmare these last 6 months, and it's far from over, but for the first time in many many months... things are looking up.

Thank you all.
