Where did the hundred days go?

Here we are at the stem cell clinic for the lab work for Dirk's Hundred Days!
What an adventure it has been.
We are thankful to be to this point with his  recovery. 

Dirk has had an amazing recovery! 

Everything went textbook perfect when he had his stem cell transplant.

We had a wonderful Christmas. Nathan, Eryn and family came to Utan for a visit.
It's always a great time for us to have all of our children together!


Dirk had some stomache issues. He had an endoscopy. The labs show amyloid in his stomach and small intestine.
He was given a new medication and started taking probiotics. This has made a big difference. 

Dirk is noticing improvements in some of his muscles. He was able to work from home and is back to the office now.

Last Saturday Dirk was able to walk around the block. It's been a long time since he has been able to do that.

We recognize Heavenly Father's hand in Dirk's recovery and many prayers in his behalf.
 
We are waiting for the bone marrow 
biopsy. Next week we will meet with the Dr. to receive the results of all the tests .

Thanks for all your prayers!

Bone marrow biopsy complete. It took
longer to do this time. Lots of waiting today. The early results of some of the blood work and lung test are good.
