Hi,
It's April 11th again. Today is the 3rd anniversary of my heart transplant. If I ponder it, it is still so weird that this is not the heart I was born with (that's in a sealed bag in a sealed bucket somewhere at Mayo Clinic. I can see it whenever I want. Once was enough.)
I have the 4 day anniversary check-up next month. For now, I feel good. The gallon of blood I sent to Mayo at the end of February yeilded stable results so I am not expecting surprises in May (of course, I never expect surprises).
The plan is for all 3 issues to be stable; heart, lymphoma remission and amyloidosis. I've been on the low dose chemo (for amyloidosis) for 18 months now and will see if they change that or not.
Hoping this will be a stable year with fewer trips to Mayo Clinic (and docs in general). In 2012-9 Mayo trips. In 2013-6 Mayo trips. May 2014 will only be my second trip to Mayo this year (a good trend).
Thank you all for your prayers and support. We couldn't have done it without you. Please remember my donor family in your prayers. Be well.
