Today is transplant day! My mom started calling it Hallelujah Day and it has caught on. It is also considered my new birthday. So I now celebrate my actual birthday (June 6, 1956), my spiritual birthday-when I gave my life to Jesus (Oct 25, 1980) and now my new cell’s birthday (Sept 23,2022).There are a couple of rough weeks ahead so prayers appreciated.

I have no white count, my hemoglobin is below 8 (normal is 12-16). I will get red cells when that hits 7. My platelets are 5 (normal 140-400) so more platelets today.

These numbers are supposed to drop as they are as this is part of the process. In a few days, the stem cells will start to mature into white, red and platelet cells. Then those numbers will start ti go up and I will feel better. This could take 7-10 days. Until then you might hear from David not me. I love you all and so appreciate your thoughts and prayers! Please continue to pray!

Godbless you! 💚 Kay
