George had a surprise today from his two favorite people. Kate and Bowers came busting in the door at just the right time to lift everyones spirits. Laughter and Love are Good for the heart!
I always wanted twins. Twins run in my moms family so I somewhat imagined it might actually happen. What I did not imagine was it happening at the ripe old age of 42. They may not have shared a womb or even been born in the same year but Kate and George are officially twins. 100% engraftment! George’s transplant was a complete success.

His eyes are really red underneath and he has a rash around his mouth and neck. No fevers so just hoping this is just yet another side effect from all his body is going through right now. Just because we are home I ask that you continue praying for him. His battle is far from over. It actually seems to be a little tougher now that we have everyday elements to deal with. But he is still so happy and other then almost being attacked by a giant rat snake today, I managed to be lovi...
