12/11
well...i spent last night in the hospital. went in wednesday for a blood draw to check my counts and ended up spending the night. they gave me platlets yesterday but were concerned about my hemoglobin numbers. i initially refused to spend the night. i was scheduled to go back today for an appointment anyway. but while i was getting platlets, my oncolgist made a special visit to convince me to stay. she also told me that the donor they had found is a great match. the plan is to go back into the hospital immediately after new years to get the transplant. just another bump.

THEY FOUND A GREAT MATCH. THAT IS GOOD NEWS. YOU CAN SPEND THE HOLIDAYS WITH THE FAMILY AND GET YOURSELF BUILT UP THEN GO IN FOR THE STEM CELL AND THEN GOOD BYE HOSPITALS. YOU CAN PUT THIS CHAPTER OF YOUR LIFE IN THE BACK OF THE BOOK AND LOOK FORWARD TO A NEW STRONGER KURT. 2009 WILL START OFF SLOW BUT THEN YOU'LL BE BUZZING.
LOVE YOU AND GOOD THOUGHTS

You're right, Kurt, it's just another bump, and you'll be over it soon. Just keep looking up and forward, and you'll be done with this whole stinkin' thing before you know it. (Actually, we were thinking of a much better word than stinkin', but decided not to use it!) Anyway, as always, you have our continued love and prayers. Stay positive!
