Yesterday Annie hiked up two and a half miles carrying a 20-pound pack to camp overnight with Tom. While they began today away from it all, in the afternoon Annie had another milestone check-up planned.
This year-and-a-half post transplant check up was not a good one for us after her first BMT. It was at that appointment that we learned the success of her first transplant turned to failure and that her body again was being shut down by aplastic anemia. But today, seven years later, she hiked down a mountain side to receive a clean bill of health. The thought of it is every bit as sublime as their sunrise view.
We keep climbing towards our next pinnacle - hopefully connecting with her donor in May. Until then her next appointment is in December for more vaccinations. Thanks, as always, for the prayers and support that made this day possible.
