Day 179

Hi All,
We're packing up for the big move back to cville. I'm crazy excited! It was a tough day at the clinic. I found out one of my transplant buds is in the hospital with a fungal infection in his brain (he's very young, 25ish), another is in the hospital for 2-3 months with heavy Graft VS Host (my age) and another one passed away last weds. He was young, around 40. These were all people who were about as far along as I am. That's the scary stuff. I met with another transplant friend who is 2 years out from her transplant and she's fine. It's good to know that it's possible.I'm still feeling well- exercising, doing EMDR, visualizing, meditating and praying like crazy. I had a cat scan today and on weds I have a meeting with a pulmonary specialist and a series of pulmonary function tests. This is all standard and isn't an indication of a problem. Next monday I have another bone marrow test and it's the last day of the semester. I'll have LOTS of papers to grade, that's for sure.
Keep me in your prayers and I'll do the same,
