    My one and only sibling, my 65 year old sister is a perfect bone marrow match!! That is just a miracle!! I am truely blessed!

    I will be going to Seattle in the near future, probably early July, to begin the awesome process of bone marrow transplant. I will be there for 4 mos.

    I am excited and more than just a little bit scared! But God is good and I know He will see me through. His strength is always sufficient to give me courage and endurance!

    Because just look how far You and I have already come!! wink

    God bless, Lola

    Fantastic news Lola.
    I took your “alphabet soup” in to my doc today and he chuckled about it. He is passing it on to Dr. Bennett saying he will really enjoy it. He was showing it around, as someone else came up to me and said they thought it was great. Always glad for a little humor.
    Will keep you in my prayers
