I received a stem cell transplant at City of Hope in an attempt to treat Acute Myeloid Leukemia. My donor was my brother, who thankfully was a match. The first year has been hard, but nothing as bad as the chemo and radiation leading up to the transplant. Next week I will have my one year bone marrow biopsy and I have no reason to think I’m not still in remission. Im not in the shape I used to be, but I feel good and I’m happy to still be on this earth.
I just wanted to remind everyone not to take a day for granted and enjoy the time you have. Keep your friends and family close, and show your kids what it means to never give up.
My situation is not unique, so here’s to everyone else that has been down this path, cheers
