Good evening,
Sorry about the two false posts - this computer is really sensitive. I'm sure its not me!!
Today went well. Rita's numbers are getting really low so she doesn't have the energy that she has had before. Eventhough, she still did 43 laps today which is remarkable considering where she is in the process. It was a little hard for her but, she did even more than I expected. The next couple of weeks are going to be the hardest. Rita basically has no immune system left and we will need to trust that her new doner cells will start to produce an new immune system soon. That is basically what will determine the success of this entire process - a process that started back in July 2010. The next two or three weeks are very important to the overall outcome and we are both aware of the fact that we are now in critical territory. As each day goes by and we have another positive result, we are even more encouraged that the overall outcome is going to be positive.
Tonight, Rita enjoyed some of Sherry's meatballs and spaghetti, we walked 23 laps and she is now taking a well deserved rest. Honestly, she is working so hard to make sure that she gets out of the hospital in 30 days. That is her goal and, knowing her, she will accomplish that.
So, things are really OK out here - we continue to take things one day at a time and to make sure we give thanks for all of the positive things that we have experienced throughout the journey we are on. There have been many times when we realize how much we are blessed to have all of you praying and supporting us. Please keep it up because it is working.
God Bless and Goodnight, Dave & Rita.
