And moving forward she is! Tomorrow we will be going up to Cedar Sianai for a day of tests and meetings.A donor has been found and this will determine
if she is ready to do the bone marrow transplant.This should be another life changing day for her, we hope. I will post in the next few days as to the
outcome.As always, thank you Nomads, for your support. Abrazos, Sally

out of 12"!!! I think this is the one from Germany.We should know as soon as tomorrow.It was a VERY good day!!!

Thanks you guys! She will be in isolation for 28 days after the transplant, and will not be allowed to have her girls there.Its gonna be real hard on
her.After learning what i have about the transplant operation, I know it is a very dangerous thing as she will have NO immune system after.Even when
they send her home it will be a neutropenic environment for 100 days!!She is not out of the woods by any means but this will save her life.I will keep
you all posted.Abrazos, Sally

All is well! Juanita has been home for three weeks now and her white cell count is better than normal!!She has a lot of pain sometimes but just
because of all the chemo that killed her nerve endings.She is managing with a patch and sometimes dilatid.She will be checking into Cedar Sinai on the
1st of May and recieving her transplant from Germany on the 9th which is when they do the transplant.She is such a fighter and I am so proud of
her.Many thanks from both of us for the awesome Nomads!!!!My stress level is down and so is my BP!! Abrazos, Sally

Transplants from Germany. Sounds like she's getting the finest care there is. She's a fighter for sure. Let's all hope she wins this battle.
Killed her nerve endings. What a terrible thing to endure. Surely modern medicine can do better. This is like the inquisition.

Thanks Igor,Woody Sara and David! This will be the biggest fight of all.She will be without ANY immune defense and hoping and praying the donors stem
cells are not rejected.Donor day is now May 9.Send all the good energy you have on that day especially Nomads!! Sally
