We saw Dr. Jones on Tuesday and as far as the transplant and his blood is concerned he is doing well. Unfortunately Dr. Jones does not agree with Dr. Penas-Prados the neurologist -- he doesn't see Dan 24/7 like I do and he thinks if he would just get up and move and exercise more everything will be okay... that would be wonderful- but he is so weak he can't excercise as much as he would like. On the other hand Dr. Penas-Prados says his weakness is a part of what is going on in the brain.
I am hanging in there and trying my best to not get to frustrated with the docs-- if as if Dr. Jones since the stem cell has engrafted 100% wants everything else to be okay-- Dan and I wish nothing less. Unfortunately, his brain is thinking something else.
We will see the neurologist on the Feb 16th and we will just go from there. We will probably be coming home around 13th of March if all goes okay. I know Dan is anxious to be home. Our good friends JD and Roger are working on some ramps for the house and the Man Cave so I can get Dan in and out easier. We pray everyday those will not be necessary but better to be prepared.
God has truly blessed us with this time we have had together and strengthened our love for each other so much! Our son Damon has recently returned home to Arkansas from drug treatment and is doing well taking one day at a time to stay clean --he is truly a wonderful man and Dan loves him very much and has been a wonderful father to him especially when his own dad would not be there for him.
Everyone love your loved ones every minute of everyday and cherish all the time you have with them because none of us no what the future holds.
We love each and everyone of you and appreciate all the love, good thoughts and prayers you send on a daily basis.
Dan and Rhonda
Watched JD and Roger working on ramp. We all miss you and are praying for your return in March.
