An update from the man himself:
It’s hard to believe that I am 60 days past my stem cell transplant. Last week I had the Kyphoplasty done in my back. That's a fancy word for cement in my spine. I've been trying to get back to normal life the best I can. I still have the tumor on my spine which they can't operate on, but hoping all the treatments have made it benign. I still have some lingering issues but hope that those will go away over time. Thank you again to everyone who has given my family support the last 6 months.
Now hoping for the words ‘recovery’ to come up soon. I have a bone marrow test coming up in 30 days which will tell me where I am.
