Donor Found!

Well, you all must be some high level pray-ers. The first person that was tested came back a 10 out of 10 match. She is a 37 year old woman. I don't know if she has had children, which is less than ideal. They are also waiting for test results from a 26 year old woman. The next step, with at least the one potential donor, is to see if she is available soon enough. We are asking for the first week in June. I will have two more bone marrow extractions before then to make sure I am still in remission. Much more for all of us to continue to pray for, and I remain very blessed and grateful to have the support from all of you.

I am feeling a little better than at first on the mylotarg. With the help of Lucy's boyfriend David, and Dennis, I have planted a garden in the back. I won't be allowed in it after the transplant, but will receive much pleasure and sustenance from looking at it.

I have lots of appointments keeping me busy, and am trying to use the rest of my time to process and center and prepare (a big job), and to be with loved ones. There really isn't anything else that seems important. I wish I could say I am living every moment in the joy of the present, but I am not there yet. It is a lovely goal to aspire to however.

And may you all be blessed with such enjoyment.
