First Day
Thanks to everyone for your comments and e-mails giving me support. I'm sorry if I can't get back to you right away, as it has been quite a week...
Today was my first offical day at BUSM in preparation for my treatment. The main purpose of my visit today was the perform blood work and to make sure that "all systems are go" for the transplant.
Aside from a problem with a high triglyceride count and my edema I am healthy and ready to start. The doctors are positive that I will make it through the treatment without too many issues.
Now tomorrow will be fun -- I get to wake up at 5am to get a catherer installed in my chest.

Hi Tony,
Checking in from New York. Just want you to know you are in my thoughts and prayers. I am completely inspired by your courage and willingness to share what you're going through. I'll leave with a quote that I believe says a lot about the kind of human being you are.
A pessimist, they say, sees a glass of water as being half empty; an optimist sees the same glass as half full. But a giving person sees a glass of water and starts looking for someone who might be thirsty. -G. Donald Gale
