Reading this blog just sometimes hits you right in the gut, but we do read it and Shawn sends her prayers while my religiously undecided self just tries to conjure up good vibrations and send them out. We are both doing that now. Our Christmas was fine, girls were here and still are driving us crazy, making us laugh. We love you.shawnandjaikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11318160801659724355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16789804.post-1135912563480354472005-12-29T20:16:00.000-07:002005-12-29T20:16:00.000-07:00I'm glad you included the information about chromo...I'm glad you included the information about chromosome 13. And as you have said in other parts of this post, some good can still come out of this. I'm sure you've already realized that if just one of your siblings' transplants works than you could continue to have a long and healthy life as a survivor. <BR/><BR/>Forget waiting to tip a glass of wine for sometime down the road, I'm doing it now! You deserve to tip your own glass, and when all this is over and we're all looking back, we're going to tip a nebechenezzer in your honor, so get ready!<BR/><BR/>I'll see you in few days, my friend.bretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09096003743095077419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16789804.post-1135897003783642522005-12-29T15:56:00.000-07:002005-12-29T15:56:00.000-07:00The new drug that Dan will be receiving, Velcade, ...The new drug that Dan will be receiving, Velcade, is a very interesting drug.
