Well…if it’s one thing we’ve learned it’s how to roll with the punches.  We just found out that despite the docs at Minnesota saying they have suitable cord donors for me that in fact the 6 they had all fell through for various reasons.  I’m now back to Hopkins and going for a clinical trial mini-haplo transplant using bone marrow from my wonderful sister who’s a half match to me.

I’m slated to be admitted on Monday (9/7) for another round of FLAM — same chemo as last round.  This is in preparation for the transplant that’s supposed to happen early November.  My docs want to make sure they get all the disease before transplant hence the more chemo.  Not looking forward to this round…but you got to do what you got to do.
