The good news is we get to go a day early. The bad news it we have to come back the day after Christmas. Hopefully it won't be for too long. We plan on bringing Norah back with us. We'd love to bring more of the kids, but just in case we get stuck up here we don't want to chance them having to miss school. I was really looking forward to being with them for Christmas break. While we are ready to be done with this chapter, we are okay with not being discharged until we have everything under control. SCCA docs are the experts in this field and we trust them. We are hoping Nathan is just a little behind since his cells came in so slowly and it won't take long before we can leave for good - or at least until his one year follow up. Gosh, I like the sound of that!
Seattle has been our home for six months now and our real home seems like a dream. I lay awake last night thinking that soon I will be sleeping in my own bed. As I drove down Mercer the other day I thought how strange it was that it felt as natural as going on Columbia Center Boulevard.
Nathan is still not feeling too great but we hope for improvement soon! Last week he had a PET scan and another endoscopy with biopsy to check for GVHD. We are eagerly awaiting the results and hoping it doesn't prevent us from going home.
