Today is the end of our week at SCCA.
The infusion went well and didn't take as long as they had scheduled. Terry was able to sleep through part of it and didn't have any adverse reaction to the immune globulin.
We are back at the apartment and he is resting. We plan on heading back home to Royal this afternoon. Our next appointment (unless the schedule changes) will be Tuesday morning, so we will probably have to head back to Seattle Monday afternoon.
This will be our last trip home during this procedure unless they give us a night off for graduation. They do say that trip is not as likely, but they are not yet ruling it out, however it would only be for overnight if it is allowed. We are keeping our fingers crossed and our prayers ascending.
Still no decision on whether he will have the chemo treatments yet, but that will be decided by next week, and would probably begin on Saturday.
Next week will include pre-radiation appointments, a data review conference, and the Hickman line placement. It will be the last week of step 2 in our transplant procedure.

another tidbit for you. Brother Hickman (I don't remember his first name) was my district president in jerusalem and a really kind and good man. the hickman procedure that terry will receive was named after him.
