Lazy days, not much to say

Sorry for the delay. I have been sleeping most of the time since the transplant. Everything is going very well though. I have maintained a normal appetite and my walking is the same. I will be in the hospital for thirty days now. My blood cell counts will drop in the next couple of days and I will continue to receive the anti-rejection medicine. Then, in about four or five days, my bone marrow will be monitored to see if I need medicine to help it recover. This is when I find out whether or not I am going to accept the new bone marrow or not. If everything goes well, I should be able to leave the hospital on day thirty. I will be monitored for another seventy days in Houston. If there are still no problems, I will be discharged from Houston and able to go home. I forecast that everything will be fine, so "I'll be home for Christmas....."
