Re: Best Wishes to Todd Lahey
Thanks For all the well wishes!
I am felling pretty good they really have this down. As soon as I start felling bad they give me some meds and it settles down.
The nurse just came into the room and told me that the donor's bone marrow is due here tomorrow around 11pm.
So we are looking forward to that!!
I hope that you all are out enjoying your summer on the water and I can't wait to going you next year!
The hospital room I am in looks over Lake Washington here in Seattle so it is nice watch all the boats.
Thanks again,
Todd

Re: Best Wishes to Todd Lahey
from yesterday! FRIDAY, JUNE 30, 2006 02:05 AM, CDT
The transplant is underway!!! Todd started receiving the cells at 10:39 p.m. our time. They received 1900 CCs about 2 liters, which they said it a bunch of cells. This is not a bad thing at all, Mesha our nurse told us that it is better to have more cells than not enough. The transplant will take about 9 hours. Right now Todd is feeling fine. They will come in and check his vitals ever hour during the transplant to make sure he is not having a reaction to the new cells. Not much else will go on tonight, we are not sure how much sleep we will get. We are both excited, but anxious and nervous at the same time. I posted some pictures on the shutterfly site! It is pretty amazing. I will post more in the morning. Happy Friday!! Love to all! : )
Way to go! thinking of you both! Mindi

Re: Best Wishes to Todd Lahey
Well.....
I have the stuff!
The marrow showed up last night around 10:30. They hooked me up and it took till 8:30 this morning to all infuse. I recieved two litters of marrow. Now the wait begins the new marrow usually takes 21 days to engraft (start working).
Thanks to everyone for all your support
