I promised everyone I'd keep you posted about this so here are some dates for you to remember :

Tuesday 4th Nov ~ My Brother-in-law (M) as his final medical and tests to prove he is well enough for transplant

Thursday 6th Nov ~ M is admitted to Isolation for two days (these two days will be particularly difficult as the 6th I am back at hospital (a different one) for another scan and the 7th I have to go back for more tests)

Sat 8th~ Tues 11th Nov ~ Andie (my husband) has to go each day for an injection to prepare his immune system and body ready for donating

Wednes 12th ~ Thurs 13th Nov ~ Andie is harvested for bone marrow and stem cells and M will be transplanted

recovery for A should be 48 hours possible Isolation for M anything from 6 weeks to 6 months and Isolation

M is particularly weak and this could save his life ~ please could I ask prayers for both A and M will keep you posted as much as possible ~ thanx ~ Mel
