Hi friends,
DH and I are going to consult with a lymphoma specialist at a different hospital in Pittsburgh this afternoon. The suggestion was made last week that this is the "ideal time" for him to have an autologous (self donor) stem cell transplant done. He and I came up with almost two pages of questions yesterday, and are feeling a bit overwhelmed with the possibility, the timeline, and the risks. So, once again, I'm requesting prayers, swinging chickens, good vibes, positive energy...whatever you've got to direct towards freezing cold and gray Pittsburgh. Love to you all. xox
