Hi @hopefuldaughter, I wanted to check in with you to see how your dad is doing on his stem cell journey. Hopefully he’s able to go through with it by now or soon… let me know how he’s doing, ok?

Hi @loribmt , It’s great to hear from you and coincidentally I came across a lovely article written about you and another young successful BMT patient!
My father is at Mayo this week for all of his pre-testing for his BMT 🙏 we’re wishing, hoping and praying that all goes well and that he’s able to receive his transplant November 25th! It’s been a very long road with several setbacks (he had to have 3 stents placed at end of Sept. and some hip/knee joint instability issues came up this past month) So, I’m unsure if all of that will prevent him from being able to receive the transplant??? But, I’m incredibly proud of his will to keep pushing forward and continually picking himself back up (-literally!)and standing tall! Thank you for all of your support and for connecting me with @capthondo regarding his recent (-and successful!!!) BMT. He was a wealth of knowledge, encouragement and support and was very gracious with his time in answering my many questions!! I will keep you posted on our progress. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your care and comfort in navigating this arduous process! Much love and gratitude to you and this whole community!❤️
