Hello friends. We are getting closer to very important date for Sammy-his 6 month anniversary since transplant. We were told by Dr Marjo van der Knapp from Netherlands,Amsterdam on conference in DeCalb , Illinois that Bone Marrow Transplant is usually starts working by 6 month from transplant. We have been seeing very slow -but consistent improvement by Sammy in the past . We have great expectations and hope for 6 month mark.
Going back to our hero Sammy -I have been working on Sammy's potty training.Every morning same time we put Sammy on the toilet to get him on the schedule . I will eventually add 1 more evening toilet time. By doing this I feel that it could become routine in the future.
I call this process -planting a seed.
We insisted on Birthday celebration in our home for grandma past Sunday. We feel that all of our children was brought up with friends and family surrounding us.We always have people over,entertaining all the time and this was great reason to celebrate -LIFE!
We had ,so much fun that day and Sammy was very comfortable and also,celebrated grandma's BIG Birthday. Since we are talking about a lady number is not important and not up for discussion. Happy Birthday Grandma.
Getting ALL the positive dates and holidays from our lives, using this opportunity to unite and share good times with people close to us -has been wonderful outlet for us.
Preparing Sammy for new school year is my next project. Getting everyone in the family agreed that he will be OK!, in school by him self-is the challenge now.
This word challenge has found constant use in my vocabulary lately . Life -is good. Challenges -is part of it! Together we will overcome ALL the obstacles -one at the time!
XOXO Sammy and MOM.
