After 6 days admitted in the hospital, and a total of 4 weeks in Dallas, on Tuesday of this week dad's blood counts and numbers started to rebound and he was released and allowed to come home. We don't know yet how "successful" the transplant was in terms of remission - time will answer that question... and we will hopefully get some test work done and results over the coming weeks that will give us an indication. In the meantime, we're incredibly proud of dad to have handled this process as well as he did - and incredibly happy that he was able to come back home. Also, due to good timing (Harrison not yet having received vaccinations) he was able to meet his grandson right when he got home!
The recovery is still going to take a lot of time and a lot of continued doctor's visits, but this picture represents a turning point in a very long journey...... thanks to all for the continued thoughts and prayers!!! They've meant a lot to our family.
