Subject: Stem Cell Transplant
Date: 06/09/2005
My husband was diagnosed two year ago with stage 3B MM. It is a wonder why he is here today. Last Aug we went through a stem cell transplant. They used his own stem cells. It was very hard on him. Plus the fact that he is in kidney failure due to the cancer is on dialzysis. We go to KU Med Center in KC Kansas. That is where they found the MM. We went back for a check up and we were told that he is in remission. Thank God!!!! But he is still very weak and spends most of his time in bed. We set up the living room with a hosp bed so he won't have to climb the stairs to our bedroom and I sleep with him downstairs. It works for us. I just wish he would get stronger. He used to weigh 180pds and when all this started he got down to 115 pds. We are back up to 140. I would like him to be heavier but we can't seem to gain anymore weight. I do know one thing that our faith in God and his will to live to see our 15 year old son raised is the only thing keeping him going. Brenda
