Today is check-in day!


Mija Juanita is checking in to Cedar Sinai today to begin the biggest battle of her life yet.There will be seven days of intense chemo (even tho she is in remission ) and on the 9th will receive her bone marrow transplant from her German donor.She will be is isolation for 28 days after.She is strong and a lot healthier right now than she has been for a very long time, but what they do is totally wipe out her immune system so the donor will not be rejected from her body.Time for some more of that strong Nomad love and good energy to be put out!!!I will be able to talk to her on the phone and will post here when I get news. Abrazos, Sally

Looks like this is the last of it. Her cancer cells have been wiped out and by introducing stem cells from a non cancerous donor she should be able to build up her system free of the malady.

We're all praying that there will be no rejection.

Udo, I think you have her confused with another Juanita!! There is another Juanita on this board.My Juanita used to live in Loreto and most recently Los Cabos where she HAD an interior design company called Estrella furniture and Design. She has been living here in Capo Beach for the last year.:?:

Best wishes Sally for all of you. Cancer touches nearly every family in some way, and I know of many success stories.
I was down at Coyote last week, you will need to get there when you can, it's a great place.

Sally, my daughter did the Stem Cell treatment in 2010 at UC Davis in Sacramento after her chemo and yes it was hard on her (and us), but well worth doing, as she is still cancer free today. I have found that in this life, there will be a few battles fought and I do believe this is one that can be won, based on our experience. And yes, big tears from my eyes make this hard to type. Prayers for success for Juanita and family. JH

As a 13% survivor of AML without benefit of BM transplant, may I suggest thoroughly dissolved Vitamin C "Ester C" in juice every day? Two grams. It does not upset the stomach.

I went through a horrible 2 months, with mustagene c-cktails I.V.

Prayers & Hugs!

Sally - Prayers prayers and more prayers - ongoing strength and courage for Juanita and all you who love her. It is my sincere wish that this be for Juanita giant steps back from the dark side.

It's encouraging to read your words, bajamedic - brings the understanding of recovery closer to home.... helps me to hold the belief that next year this time Juanita will be healed. May your daughter continue to live a healthy and enjoyable cancer-free life.
