The wheels are in motion to contact his same donor on the East coast to get blood so that we can give him a lymphocyte transfusion to boost his counts a bit. It will be about another month before we can get and give him lymphocytes. We have been told that the lymphocyte procedure is not as involved as a bone marrow transplant, just a few days in the hospital. Hopefully, his donor will be so gracious once again to give of herself.
Kelptyn's doctor commented that Kelptyn could not receive a 3rd bone marrow transplant for at least 9 months to a year and that his chimerism would have to show 0% donor. He would also have to have a different donor for a 3rd transplant. We are again hoping that he won't need a 3rd transplant.
For now, we are enjoying the simple pleasures of being home and taking things one day at a time because ultimately none of us know how many days we get.
