Charmaine is still so excited to be home. She was at Emory for 3 weeks.
She is doing extremely well. Her appetite is almost normal now and her energy level is still good. One of her meds is a steroid that she will take for a short time. When she comes off of it we expect her to experience some fatigue.
She still has a bit of rash over her body. The Dr seems very concerned about it because it can go internal and cause problems.
We went to the clinic for a check on Wednesday and will go again today. I think we will be going 2 or 3 times a week for a while.
She has done exceptionally well with the transplant so far. The nurses called her "The Miracle Girl" because she did so well.
It will take 4 to 6 weeks and maybe longer for any graft verses host disease to surface if it does at all.
Thanks again for all the care all of you have shown for her during this amazing journey.
Will keep you posted on her progress.

Good Job on the treadmill. Glad to hear you have your appetite back too. God is good! We saw Sam when we were driving into the clinic but he didn't see us. Maybe next week we will run into you there. Keep your chin up! The Blonshines
