Northwestern follow up

We had an appointment at Northwestern on Friday. The Dr looked over the PET scan and bone marrow biopsy and said everything looks great. So Nate will have an auto stem cell transplant. The process will begin mid-March. He will spend 2-3 days at Northwestern having his stem cells collected. Then a couple weeks later he will spend 6 days in the hospital receiving intensive chemo. Then his stem cells will be infused back into him and he will spend about 3 weeks in the hospital. We will be receiving more information from the transplant team over the next few weeks about what to expect post-transplant.

Nate has one more chemo round, inpatient at Grand Rapids on February 28. Please pray for continued health and that we will not be fearful and stressed when the stem cell transplant process begins.
