Lovey, I so glad that Burt is doing well!  Plese, remember to Burt  about rising  his mouth constantly.  is really very important! Adam  had avoided the mouth sores at all, but I think that he rather was very lucky one.

Adam is doing very well. My only worry now is that, acording to me, he  works  to much. He writtes one article per week, writtes on his blog each other day  , and does many reasarches at internet.But he is a workoholic he eats really well and we are walking daily.

Take care, I am constatly  thinking about both  you. No, I am  not going  to take you to McDonalds  for  a diner. I promise!  In Krakow we have plenty of reastaurants, some of them very good, a few  of them - tiptop!   We adore eating out, and now i a bit mising this plasures!

Go Burt!!!  That's great to hear he's doing well, hope things keep going as smoothly as possible for you two.

Glad to hear that things seem to be going good. Hope they continue to go well, and that the mouth sores don't get any worse than mild. Your both continually in my prayers.

God Bless,

I remember my dad insisted that the water in the hospital tasted foul - then I tasted it, and it seemed fine to me. My mom found some flavored waters that he liked better. One was white tea flavored, and others were peach and raspberry. Maybe you could try some of those for Burt.

I hope things continue to improve.

  Lovey , I know that is hard to be patient. But is very early, Adam  "officially"engrafted at day +19.  Remember that it happens between more or less  day+12  and- day +26.But this "waiting business" is very hard. I am with both of you!

I agree with Tex. eating is very important, Few spoons of soup, maybe a jello. I dont know, but please, try to encourage Burt  for eating, a bit, but eating.

Take care.Hugs. Marta

Good quote.  I may steal it.

I wasn't trying to deflate anyone.  Actually, I was trying to avoid any crushing sense of defeat.  From what I've understood in talking to the few folks I've known that had their discharge delayed, that is sucking to the the suckiest degree.

That said, most folks get discharged when they are supposed to.  But I really liked it the way they handled mine both times (induction and SCT).  The doc walked in in the morning and told me I was being sent home today.  Didn't have time to get my hopes up, let alone dashed.  I just started packing.

Burt's counts are good.  I hope he does, indeed, make it home.

Blessings

Lovey, I love your quote!

Finger cross for friday!

I am writting in a hurry, is 7 am o, the sun is rising, our luggages are packed, we are leaving in one hour to Krakow.

Take care, and  take  the spirit both of you up! Hugs Marta
