No news is good news

So Dad as recovered nicely from the stem cell transplant. He had some time where is appetite wasn't great, but that is back and so is his strength. He has spent the last 2 months at work and doing physical therapy. At this point he is on maintenance chemotherapy just in case the stem cell transplant didn't do what we hoped. In late August they will repeat his labs to see if he is in remission. In the meantime, he has met with the back surgeon, who doesn't recommend fixing the fractured vertebrae quite yet. We are waiting for his bones to get stronger before they go that route. His ticker is doing fantastic! Just waiting for his hair to slowly grow back. He shaved it when he was in the hospital, and now he has fuzz growing. Thanks so much for the support.....we posted new pictures, one before the transplant and the pictures from the Canthera 1 yr birthday celebration party with his oncologist.
