So our Mystery Man has his doctors and parents in a surprising "Aw", okay more like a "What the.....!?!" Kelptyn's chimerism had dropped down to 0% on 2 out of his 3 markers and 1% on his Tcell marker previously. Well, I guess his hands and feet over the last two weeks really were showing us GVHD because his chimerism results from last Friday's test demonstrated: 7% Mcells and 53% Tcells. His doctor printed out the results because he thought we might not believe him. That's right his donor's cells are growing back and Kelptyn is fighting like hell to hold on to them!!! Kelptyn continues to be a bit of a medical mystery, but really I feel his spirit has been guided by something far greater than us all along. Every day is full of surprises and every day is a blessing. Thanks to everyone who is praying and cheering on our Happy Star! xo
