Last week was a really busy week. Terry spent 3 days at the clinic receiving blood, platelets, and running pre-transplant tests and meetings. The tentative date set is the 17th and she is on house-arrest until then. Dr. Martin has been talking to other doctors trying to figure out what the best action plan is- they are going to try to first replace her plasma (I think this is called plasmapheresis) to reduce the number of antibodies and then give her chemotherapy- a little different than that she has already received. Then she will have another transplant, this time with a different donor which they have found already and will hopefully take better. We'll keep you posted.
