So once again I've gone way too long between posts. Now that we are through the Holidays I figured I should let everyone know how things are going. I hope everyone had a great Holiday season and a Happy New Year! We did as we had everyone home (including Allie from DC) for both Thanksgiving and Christmas. It was great just being together and spending time after everything we have all been through over the past year. 
     As for me I've been feeling great! The only issue I've had is a little Graft vs. Host (GVH) that's been going on for the past month or so. It's a slight rash on my back and chest that they noticed when I was in on one of my checkups before Thanksgiving. GVH is when your donor cells attack your
body/host cells. In it's mild form GVH can fight remaining cancer cells which is a positive benefit. Nonetheless, it needs to be managed so  they have not been able to wean me off of my immune suppressing drugs yet. I just need to continue to be careful who I'm around as I'm extremely susceptible to catching anything I come in contact with which can be tough at this time of year but so far so good! 
      I've also started back to work, at first several days a week, now full time. It's nice to be able to get my life back to normal or as normal as it can be. I've also been able to get in to several Bruins games with Sandy and the kids. I also have a milestone this week as this Friday I'm scheduled to have my port surgically removed from my chest. It's been in since April and it will be great to finally get it out after nine months! 
      Here's hoping that everyone has a healthy and prosperous New Year, we're certainly hoping for that!
