Finished my second day of chemo.  Have been having a reaction to something.  Not sure if it's the chemo or not.  Have had a rash on my neck and it is swollen.  Have tried a few things but haven't seen much improvement. They even did an Doppler to check for a blood clot. Quinn started his shots for his donation today.  Every thing is on schedule for the transplant on the 5th. 

They have been working on a lot of the pre-transplant stuff.  Had my third bone marrow biopsy monday.  They did some lung test, ECHO of my heart, EKG, took 18 tubes of blood, chest x-rays.  Tuesday they did a medical history and a phisical. Then they put a port in me so I won't have to worry about iv's.  Today I have a Doctors apointment.  They will be starting me on chemo tomorrow and will have the transplant on the 5th of December. 

It's almost time for me to disappear for a little while. Last weekend to spend with the kids before I leave. Not ready... Never will be... Its very hard to say goodbye and let things go... Even if its just for a while....  I am lucky  to have an awesome wife J'Lene and an amazing sister Sally that will be able to do the undo-able. I not sure what is going to happen but I am sure it will work out and we will all be stronger then we are now.

Thank You! - Family, friends, and everyone that has been there, one way or another. With all the bad in the world today, its nice to know there is a lot of good still too. I don't think i will ever be able to thank everyone or even know everyone that has helped us out. There are just so many kind and caring people surrounding us. Love you all!
