Hello all! My husband “cell-abrated” his two year allogeneic bone marrow transplant anniversary in June! He was diagnosed with a rare, high risk AML in Feb 2024. Dark days. He listened to the doctors, ate and moved his body everyday even when when he didn’t feel like it, and took all medications diligently. Sought expert advice on eye GVHD at university of Illinois eye clinic early on, and has that under control, along with some in his mouth that flares up occasionally. He just went water skiing a couple days ago for the first time since diagnosis. His muscles are sore, and he has more muscle building to do, but he is living his life!! A blessing from a donor in Germany. We live everyday with immense gratitude for another day together.
He has met two new grandchildren since the transplant and we celebrated 2 more wedding anniversaries!
There is life after transplant! It’s so sweet and rich after what we’ve been through.
Wishing you all continued hope and strength.
