Sorry I didn't update sooner. I've lost track of the timing but about 4 weeks ago we learned that her bone marrow is now 100% donor! YEA! Then last week we go the results back from her bone marrow biopsy and there were ZERO MUTATIONS! YEA AGAIN! She will still have 8 rounds of chemo, 5 days in a row each time, but the Onc said that is a preventative just in case something was missed. Seems like she's recovering nicely. She has had a couple of rounds of GVHD with a rash, no itching, but the prednisone has been very effective. Her energy and her mood are both up and life is almost back to normal. I printed comments from Lori and Ted for her and they were very helpful (THANK YOU BOTH!!!) just in knowing what to expect and understanding that the first few months are simply just hard... 90 days from transplant on the 9th.
