It has been 3 years since Nate's stem cell transplant and the results of his annual PET scan show he is still cancer free!
Nate continues to receive rituxan every 2 months. He is scheduled to end the rituxan treatments in November as the current research shows 3 years of rituxan maintenance after a stem cell transplant is beneficial.
Nate's port stopped working and it was removed in January. We have a picture of the port, but it might make some of us squeamish so I won't post it. It was interesting to see that little device that had been inside of him for 3 years- it served him well. Now when he has a rituxan treatment they just put an IV in.
Nate is healthy, feels great and we are grateful!
So glad that he is doing well! I pray that will continue.
