Slow and Steady Progress

25 days in the hospital
16 days post-transplant

Roger is tired today.  It's 2:30pm and he hasn't been out of his room for a walk yet.  His body is hard at work, although it's not noticeable to the naked eye.  His blood counts continue to rise slowly.  We've been told to expect that he will feel lower energy on some days and higher energy on others, so this is not discouraging.  If he continues at this rate, he'll start to develop an appetite within a few days.  Until then, we'll baby this new growth along.

  1. Slow and steady, slow and steady. The tortoise always wins, not the hare. :-)

  2. Glad to hear things are going well. I'm trying to keep the snow cleared in front of your place on Pine Street. Cheers!
