Happy Transplant Day ...

... that's what the card that Joe got after his stem cell transplant said. The donor is a very healthy 23 year old who provided so many stem cells that everyone double checked the numbers and 3/4 of the cells are being frozen future use. The Physician Assistant who administered the stem cells said her mantra is "Keep it Boring" and that's what Joe did today. Hooray! Now onto the Joe Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2010 (JRRA).

  1. I hope you guys have Netflix or something to pass the time! If you are at UMHS, tell all the staff I said hello if you think of it. They were all so wonderful.

    Dominate JRRA!
