Well I received my stem cells today. It was all around a pretty rough day. I was nauseated most of the day and tired even more of it. They gave me my stem cells around 2:00 and it took probably about an hour or two. It went well except this time the veins in my legs hurt, it felt like the muscles were cramping up.
Stem cell sounds like a big deal but it really isn't. Their frozen when they get here, thaw them into an extra large syringe, then just push them into your port, or vein or whatever. The only real side effect is that it taste like tomato soup from the preservative they put in the stem cells. Which you can also smell in the room while they are injecting them.
My father and aunt showed up today. Gave me someone to talk to in between dozing in and out.
I feel pretty worn down, I'll try to write later on this week but if it's anything like the last session it's going to be pretty rough until next Wed. or Thur. Talk soon.

Jim,
Thanks for posting this, I have been wondering how you have been doing. I am a little hesitant to call because I know you are tired and need your rest. It is encouraging that you have enough strength to write a post.
I am praying for you.
Hey Bro,
Thanks for the update. I don't know if you got my message. I am a little hesitant to call back as well until you are ready. Our prayers are with you.
Talk soon, Bobby
