Journal entry by Matt Schreiber

Hi there :)

For those that aren't on FB or Instagram... Here is some absolutely wonderful news I shared...

Nahum 1-9: What do you conspire against the LORD? He will make an utter end of it. Affliction will not rise up a second time.
I said this and believed it with all my heart as I was receiving treatment and during stem cell transplant, along with many other healing scriptures.

I was told by my Hopkins transplant team a few weeks ago that they could basically certainly say, they have CURED my plasma cell leukemia.  Since I am at my two year mark (almost) from transplant and still have GVH, these are all good things. Even my local oncologist told us making it to the 6 month post-transplant mark was a big deal.  It's hard to wrap my mind around. To give it perspective, this type of Leukemia could either be cured or not. Remission is really only possible for a few months unless transplant happens. 

Thank you SO much to all of those who have prayed and sent strong vibes, delivered meals, recovery gifts, cards, flowers, helped with the girls and fur animals, donated your money and time to ensure my family was taken care of.

I have said it all along but I feel like I can officially say, I AM HEALED. The fight still continues but now I can finally start making future plans with more certainty. 

Next month I hope my donor agrees to meet me. He saved my life through @bethematch

I'm still training for my full marathon with @teamintraining and feel grateful everytime I put on my running shoes. @llsusa #johnhopkins #godisgood #jesusheals
