Next phase

Jaron will start his next 29-day phase of chemotherapy on Wednesday morning, barring any setbacks with his blood counts. He will be in the hospital for just the first few days, so we anticipate him being able to come home Friday sometime. After the 29 days, he will have another bone aspiration, and if all is well he will get a week off and then begin the several-week process of bone marrow transplant around the first couple of weeks of October. We understand that a couple of potential donors have been located, and that it will take around 4 weeks to make sure they are the absolute best match for him and to get everything ready for transplant. We don’t know who they are, or where they are, but they have been located using the registry. We don’t anticipate any problems in the next few days, but it’s never fun to be admitted to the hospital, so we appreciate your prayers for him, and for our family as we juggle things around! While you’re at it, remember to pray for the incredible doctors and nurses who faithfully do a super job every day.
