Many thanks!

It looks better and better that I won't be doing the bone marrow transplant but if nothing else the one thing that this MDS has done for me is to make me keenly aware of that. Get yourself checked and if someone needs the bone marrow go for it! I can tell you as the veteran of a few marrow draws that the pain is short and less than you think. What you can do for another person is immeasurable!

Last day of chemo for the first cycle Tuesday morning. Second cycle starts probably end of the month. Maybe by August the transfusions will slow down. That's the idea anyway.
