OMG… you are a Saint!!! Your information and encouragement are a gift to me..
I agree that being home is much better for healing and recouping. If they could just figure out what or why the bone discomfort, it would be helpful. I am waiting to hear back from his Dr at Mayo..
Really appreciate your info on the isolation info.. we have not seen anyone or gone anywhere, and it is hard but we know it is for the best. Thanks so very much for reaching out, I greatly appreciate it is so helpful… more than you https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/789438/ know! 😘
Will share

Well, now I’m all teary-eyed. You just made my day. This is why I mentor others who are going along the same transplant journey. It really helps to talk with someone who has ‘walked the walk’. My doctors and team at Mayo were wondeful and I learned a great deal through my experience. Their encouragement meant the world. But until a person has gone through a transplant personally, no one understands fully what this entails. I’m so happy to be in the position to help in anyway I can.

Over this past year I had the privilege of mentoring a young woman who had the same leukemia and transplant as I did. It’s a rare moment when a mentor on Connect actually gets to meet a member in person so we did a little write up about the occasion. Thought you might enjoy some light reading. ☺️

I hope there’s an answer soon to your husband’s bone pain. This must be very discouraging for him but the good news is that it sounds like everything else is on the positive recovery track!
Wishing both of you a Happy New Year! Airhug! Lori
