Continuing on...

Terry is up, has taken his meds, eaten a little, and is in the shower. So far, so good. Yeah!
We'll start pumping fluids after his shower. (They do not want him to get dehydrated.)

Dennis and MaryAnn returned from the clinic with good report. Dennis is free to go home, so they packed up and left. They have a few stops on their way home and we hope the traffic is good all day for them.

Dennis said that the normal number of cells they like to have for a transplant is about 5 million, but they actually used about 7.14 million. So, we certainly got enough :)
THANKS again to Dennis and MaryAnn for their love and support and kindness. We will miss their company, and will be forever grateful for their goodness towards us.

Yeah and double Yeah. Sounds like things couldn't be any better at the moment. We'll take that won't we.....one hour at a time. Good job Terry and Dennis. Wow what a great team you make together with your sweet wives. Hope Dennis and Mary Ann have a good and safe trip home and find all well there. My thanks also, Dennis, for what you have done for all of us but most of all for Terry.

By the way, our son has been the recipient of some wonderful service this past week- many thanks to your sons. They have had great examples in their lives!
