As you know, second transplants are relatively common, and Dori sounds so strong she will probably sail through. You probably know that I had a similar problem. When I reached two years after my auto, they said break out the Champagne, it is unlikely that it will return. Three and a half years later, I was playing tennis, running and leading a normal life and then WHAM, relapse. You ask yourself, 'What the f---?"<br /><br />But the process has come so far and the doctors have many tricks up their sleeve. It sure sucks to go through it again, in any case, but remember to take advantage of the cool drugs (my favorites: Ativan and Demerol.)Ronni Gordonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00036024135497392070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4538770380620139090.post-53952646766693933542010-07-04T22:11:47.805-05:002010-07-04T22:11:47.805-05:00Dammit.

I have kept up with Dori via email periodically and was so happy to see how wonderful she was doing. She was by far my favorite patient from my time on 11 North (I now work for Tennessee Oncology). She was the first patient I followed from before diagnosis through the entire transplant process. Dori and your family taught me so much about handling this disease with dignity and grace and it was such a great pleasure to care for her during that time. I am truly a better nurse and person for having been a small part of your lives! I will pray for you and your family every day! Now that I have a 4 month old daughter I understand even more how much a mother wants to be there for her children! Much love to you all and please let me know if I can do anything for you!<br />-AliaAliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15221538619346733730noreply@blogger.com
