The day has arrived. Christi is nauseous again, but we are glad she had 3 good days to get pumped up about the transplant. The stem cells arrived safely, so we are breathing a huge sigh of relief. There's not much for us to do, and there's not much going on, but we are here together for Christi. It is an emotional day.
Julia and Lisle did not go to school today so they can be with their mom. We hope to see the treasured stem cells around 2 or 3 pm. I just wish "Hilda" from Europe could be here so we could thank her...
A stem cell transplant is nothing more than hooking up the bag to her PICC line just as an IV. The stem cells must find their way to her now-dead bone marrow and go to work. It is one of God's miracles, and we are thankful for the doctors who enable this to happen.
