Boy oh boy the pressure to get a post on here...I didn't realize the morning popularity! Kurt started chemo on Thursday evening to get ready for the stem cell transplant set for next week. The staff decided that getting new cells in him as soon as possible was the best situation versus waiting and risking more viruses or complications.
Since the last post Kurt has started eating fruit cups, watermelon, Popsicles, and jello. They continue to use the feeling tube to give him nutrients. He has adjusted quite nicely to that strange apparatus. When he first got it, it was taped to the top of his head, so he was bobbing it up and down, having his head do a dance--always entertaining!
He hasn't had a fever in several days which is terrific. His positive attitude is back, and he is ready to move forward. As always we appreciate the love, support and prayers. xoxo

Thanks, Flo. Really look forward to the posted updates.
LOTS of progress, Kurt. Count the steps toward recovery, not the end goal, it'll get here sooner. You are on my heart all the time.
Love,
Greg
