December 3rd................UPDATE

Charmaine is doing well now. We went to the clinic Wednesday for normal blood work and Dr. appointment. All of her numbers were very good. The Dr. is starting to reduce her meds slowly weaning her off of them. We found out that her donor cells are 100% now which means the engraftment is successful at this point.

She had a bad rash on her face that is now gone with the meds the Dermatologist gave her.

Her hair is growing like crazy now. Maybe a 1/4 inch all over her head!!!!!!!!!!!!

She is felling well now but has to nap 2 to 3 hrs. during the mid day. Other than that she is just fine.

We are still living in somewhat of a bubble and will be till after the 1st of the year I suppose. That's OK as long as she is home and feeling well.

She was in Emory Hospital 91 days this year not counting clinic visits and ER visits.


We go back to the Dr on the 18th . She will get a PCR and FISH test to check details of her transplant again.

More later.................. Thanks for caring.

Sam
