Happy Anniversary

We had a wonderful anniversary yesterday! My husband has Multiple Myeloma and is 37 days past his stem cell transplant. That means that his immune system is non-existent and he cannot be in public places. This only means that we need to get creative if we want to go places and do things! I managed to find a very nice golf club with a nice restaurant. We got to eat outside on the screened porch in the rain and it was wonderful. There was a nice gentle rain with a cool breeze. We had to whole place to ourselves and had a wonderful time! It was the first date we have had since before his diagnosis last December 2008. It has been a rough 8 months but it has been a wonderful 13 years.

Thank you my love and I look forward to many more! Research has come a long way and they continue to make new strides every day. If you want more information about this incurable cancer of the plasma cells check out this forum. http://www.myelomaforums.com/. At this point it is only treatable with chemotherapy and stem cell transplants. This really only buys the patient time. It is not curable.
