Another miraculous answer to our prayers! Today, we received wonderful news! BOTH my sister Vicki and my brother Sheril are perfect matches for my next stem cell transplant using donor stem cells. How miraculous is that? The statistical possibility for one sibling being a match is 25% and the possibility of two siblings being a match is 6.25% Another tender mercy of the Lord.
Just finished (overnight at Huntsman on Monday night) my fourth round of chemo. Once the doctors have determined that the tumor has decreased sufficiently in size (and the blood tests have already shown amazing progress), then the analagous stem cell transplant will be scheduled.
I am overwhelmed by your kind thoughts, prayers and faith on my behalf.

This is fantastic news.
That's great Rich! You're right - another tender mercy. I bet they'll be fighting over which one gets to be your donor!! :)
Big hugs!
Hey, Rich.....David and I want you to know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. As Jews, we say a prayer called M'Sheberach which is a prayer for healing of body and spirit. We have mentioned your name as services because we want you to know that everyone of all faiths wish you well. This is a touch road you have to follow but how blessed are you that your brother and sister are perfect matches. There is definitely a spirit bigger than any of us that will give you strength for a very positive outcome. Hang in there. The best is yet to come......Judi and David Harris
Keep the good news coming!
Carry on brother!
Carry on, Carry on, carry on!!!
