Last Tuesday, Kurt was admitted into the hospital. He also started total body radiation that day. He has one more to go tomorrow, and then 2 days of chemo. Wednesday they will harvest the marrow from a 21 year old male from Europe. Then they will fly it from Europe that same day and they will transfuse it into Kurt on Thursday the 13th.
He has done very well so far. Just a little nausea and a little tired. I'm sure the chemo will knock him down some more, and also his blood counts will soon start going down. We are just taking one day at a time and dealing with whatever comes along. I will update next week after the marrow has been put into him.
Not too much more to report, he doesn't know how he is going to stay there that long, but I think it will go faster as we get more into it. Thanks again for your concern and prayers. We know we are being blessed.
Look at all my hair! It won't be around very long.
Good Luck Kurt. Our prayers are with you and your family. Love you guys! The Farnsworth's
