Our oldest daughter, Amy, arrived on Thursday afternoon and David left on Friday morning. David took the car so we rented a golf cart to get around the RV park for a couple days. David went camping and bike riding in the Hill Country near San Antonio.

Amy went with me to clinic on Friday then made a Mexican Bake and orange pineapple gelatin for the family with seven boys. We had a small bake for us. It was delicious! We watched a documentary about Jim Allison a research doctor at MDAnderson who won the Nobel Peace Prize for medicine in 2018. We had wonderful conversations all weekend.

On Saturday, we held a Boot Walk in our park for locals to raise money for MD Anderson research. There were seven walkers and overall with donations from family and friends, we raised more than $700. It was a beautiful day for a walk. After a rest, we started a 500 piece round puzzle. Again more conversations while we worked on the puzzle.

On Sunday, Amy drove us around the park in the golf cart just for fun. After lunch, we worked on the puzzle. Amy did some much appreciated cleaning for me. David arrived home around 4. He and Amy made dinner and we had more good conversation. Then we took Amy to a hotel near the airport since she has a Monday 6:30am flight.

What a wonderful blessed weekend visit Amy and I had and David had a relaxing getaway.

I feel good! Stronger each day. I no longer have to go to clinic for Magnesium and Potassium infusions. Today I have an appointment with my transplant team including my doctor Dr Champlin. I am at Day 45 post transplant! Every day that passes brings us closer to going home.

God bless you all. Keep looking up!!! He is with you. Kay

Dave will send pictures next post!
