Our 62K Week Stem Cell Transplant

We just got back from the Dominican Republic for our Medical Vacation. We had a team of Doctors from Canada, USA and a Plastic Surgeon from the D.R. All went well and we are hoping for positive results for our daughter. Wife and I donated along with our daughter to herself. They extracted from our hips and we were the first 3 donor transplant with something like 1.6 Billion stem cells planted into our daughters lungs to start replacing her C.F. cells with healthy lung tissue. Here is a link to a Google slide show

And here is a link for donations if you so desire. We will need a second transplant most likely if all goes well. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/off-topic-discussions/824534-my-daughter-needs-transplant.html


And if you are ever given a chance to donate bone marrow please do it. Oh yes I am still sore and have a hard time walking but it is nothing these kids go through. Thanks for caring.
