10/11/12

John is doing better than the average bear (who is surprised??) with his prep; he has completed 8 of 10 total body irradiations and is still eating and walking although he is beginning to feel a little under the weather at this point.  He is a rosy tan; not too badly burned and none of the old lesions have necrosed creating new sites for infection. 
Michael and Zacchary were donating all day today and will donate again all day tomorrow.  John will get two more radiation sessions tomorrow and then he will receive M and Z's T cells to finish off his immune system and stray cancer cells.  This will all take place tomorrow evening.  The T cells may cause flu like symptoms including GI distress and fever over the weekend but we will hope he continues to beat the odds.  I will keep you updated.
Thank you all again for your continued love, support and good wishes.  John does check his hotmail account so feel free to email him if you want to.
