View submission: What are you doing right now?
🫶 I'm trying to think positive. In the other delays, it turned out to be a good thing, so maybe something will come up and we'll be happy this happened. 😅 it's been like 18 months in the works. It was just aplastic anemia (bone marrow failure, his body stopped making blood) in 2019. By 2020, he was almost back to himself, and it was going to be our year back to normal. Lololol, but after remission failed, hospitals closing, doctors leaving, and all that by the time we got back to talking about the transplant, he developed MDS (blood cancer) That sucks and all but 6 years ago he didnt have a full match, now he has multiple, high risk mds sucks but those injections in his stomach just got approved for some hospitals to use make the chance of killing it off and transplant go more smoothly go from 30% to 80%. There's a new transplant procedure where they delete a chromosome or part of dna before the transplant, supposed to make recovery easier cause that's a long 106 days he needs to stay within minutes from the hospital with a 24/7 caretaker the entire time and kids aren't allowed. So. It's gonna be fun. Thank you for your kindness. It's hard to see all that I do when I only see what's yet to be done. All the time, it just never stops, there's just so much.

The one really great thing about the medical field is sometimes you get lucky and things getting put off wind up putting you at an advantage because of the newer approved things. That was a hell of a run on sentence sorry. I hope the best things come your way soon.
