Waaaah!
Ok, let’s try this life thing one more time. My body didn’t quite get it right the first time, so we’re giving it another shot!
My new bag-o-cells finally cleared baggage claim, customs, passed by duty free without spending too much money, cleared the laboratory, and arrived tired but looking fresh at 2am last night. Patti, an 18-year veteran Hutch nurse, checked the precious bag, hung it (without tearing it!), and then let the new stem cells slide right into me through my Hickman line. It was simply magical.
Enough words. Here are the pictures and videos (1 , 2, 3, 4) to tell the rest of the story.
With lots of love to you all,
Sameer II
