SHOUT-OUT TO FRANCISO
FRANCISO is in Maine now.
The treatment protocol that he is going through is different from the one I had. He isn't getting the stem cell transplant YET! Hopefully, the treatment he is getting now will prepare him for a stem cell transplant, in about 5-6 months.
Currently, he is using supplimental oxygen 24x7. His lung performance is too low for him to get the transplant just yet.
He has recevied Cytoxan, Campath & Neulasta - the trio of drugs that I received. A few days ago he had a fever that ran 102+! After that was cleared up he developed fluid in his lungs, and that condition is currently being treated with heavy antibiotics. The situation seems to be under control.
Although he was supposed to go home to NJ, this weekend, Dr. Traynor held him over for a few days.
Here is to you, Franciso!
And Game Balls to your son, Dominic and your wife.
