Great News!

Great news!  John got the results of his Chimerism test today.  It revealed that he was 84% donor!  Sue, the nurse practitioner, is very excited.  She said that is a very good first score to have.  I was worried when she first gave us the news, because I thought you were supposed to get a 90% or higher, but Sue said that wasn't true.  She said 84% was a great first score.  She said many transplant recipients score 15%, 11%, or even 0% donor on their first test. 

What I am really excited about is the fact that was John's first Mixed Chimerism test and his blood count scores were even lower then than they are now.  So he should score even higher on the next Mixed Chimerism test.  They took another one today.  I can't wait to see what the result of this next one is but I must be patient, as it will take two to three weeks to get the results back.

I will update on what has been going on soon, I just wanted to let everyone know the results.

Thanks for all the prayers!  Love you all, Krissy :)

    Krissy,
    When I saw this my heart jumped a few beats.  I'm doing the happy dance I am so thrilled for you guys.  If I am this excited I can only imagine how you both are feeling right now.  How much longer will you have to be there?

    Hugs, LuAnne

    Krissy, I'm so happy to hear that John's test results came back so good!  That is great news. Many prayers for you both.  I'm still training for my half marathon in June and will be walking in John's honor.  Again, many prayers for you both and I'm glad to hear that his results are coming back so good.

    God Bless, Megan (Mytiemo)
