Here We Go!!!

Well, as of yesterday, our Dave has 99.9% decided to go ahead with the Stem Cell Transplant. He will be calling the Docs at Dana Farber in the next week, to set up an appointment to discuss the preliminary procedures and the time table. Everything has to happen within a certain time limit, and now is the time.
For two reasons, first from a medical standpoint, the Myeloma is in a dormant stage and this is the best time to get the healthy stem cells to transplant, and second, from an emotional standpoint, Dave is in the best spirits that he has been in since the inception of this life changing situation.
His outlook, from all angles, looks very good. There will be a period of 'at the edge' kind of drama, but so far he has shown us that he is capable of handling the 'cliffhangers'.
What a guy!! We are blessed to be able to call him husband, Daddy, son, brother, and friend.
So, here we go-please sign his guestbook so that he can have your comforting and happy messages to bring with him to the hospital. Your words are his best medicine.
Keep a happy thought.
Marilyn
