K's been on the phone a lot today. Her transplant coordinator has been trying desperately to move things forward. Right now, there is some hope that she can just skip the consolidation chemo altogether. This would be great since chemo is 1) basically poison so minimizing it is good, and 2) relatively unnecessary if she can get the transplant early since it will completely wipe out her immune system anyway. Also, early transplant means that I can spend more time with her during and after. School starts in the middle of August. No news on the swollen lymph node yet. She has a number of hoops to jump through to get Medicaid's approval for the transplant including a drug test, blood tests, and possibly yet another (medically unnecessary) bone marrow biopsy. The picture above is Kristi standing in the window of our new Warnock Engineering Building office. You can almost see her place down at the end of 1st south.
