I haven't updated lately but Charmaine is doing good now. She is almost over the side effects of the chemo and radiation had on her body. She still has some fatigue but it is minor now because she is still taking steroids. She developed a very bad cough and head cold but the antibiotics have nearly stopped that.

Still having to live in a bubble for the most part for a while longer. Getting a little stir crazy having to stay home all the time.

Her hair is about 1/2 inch long now and is a beautiful salt/pepper color and feels like velvet. Her hair came back black instead of brown. They say a hair color change is not uncommon after transplant.

Her finger nails and toe nails are healing back slowly but ok. She lost all of them which is not uncommon.

Thank you all for your continued prayers and concern for her.
