Jerry’s Story

Site created on February 6, 2018

We wanted to start this site to keep everyone informed on how Jerry is doing.  A year ago Jerry was diagnosed with MDS.  He has been treated with chemotherapy and blood transfusions.  This is a temporary treatment but not a cure.  Jerry was accepted at VA\Vanderbilt Hospital in Nashville to have a stem cell transplant which is the only cure.  Our son Troy will be the donor.   Asking for your prayers as Jerry and Troy go through this procedure!
