Avram was just here. He had an appointment with the doctor. He picked up his injections. He has to inject twice a day from Thursday thru Sunday. Monday he's due back for the harvesting. They will be taking blood out of one of his arms, separating out the stems cells, and then returning the rest of the blood back in thru the other arm. This will occur over approximately 4 hours. He looks great! Got "Hero" written all over 'im.
Everything sounds exactly as it should - and all too familiar. I was also so proud of my sister. Tell your brother every chance you get how truly amazing he is! You - like me - are very lucky in that they are doing the harvesting and then transplanting very soon afterwards. It will prevent them from having to use preservatives in them, which I understand stink like creamed corn once transplanted! Yuck! :-) Smile often and stay positive!
