April 3rd day +138

Bad news today the nurse practitioner called us and told us they are very worried about me. Like mom and dad they do not think the graft vs host is working like they wanted it to so they are changing the plan, again. They are going back to the donor and ask if he would donate some of his stem cells. With stem cells there is a greater chance of getting graft vs host so they are hoping he will say yes and it will work. Before the transplant they will do a major round of chemo, worse than anything I have gotten before. They then will give me the stem cells, so we will count down like we did with the bone marrow transplant it's just stem cell transplant this time. I am glad I have another chance at getting rid of the leukemia but am very sad I have to go back to the hospital and throw up and do it all over again! I do have at least 2wks till it will all take place they still need to ask the donor and get that all arranged again. I am pretty scared right now but trust all will be well. I am going to fight and win this once and for all!!!! Please keep me in your prayers and I will let you know.

Love Trent
