Happy Birthday! (Hold the Creamed Corn)

October 30, 2017October 30, 2017 / Mindy Grant / 10 Comments

It's Transplant Day! The side effects from the "atomic bomb" of chemo Corey received Saturday have started to kick in, although not super severely. It's hard to say whether that or the impending procedure had us feeling a bit subdued this morning, but there was definitely less pep in our step than there might normally … Continue reading Happy Birthday! (Hold the Creamed Corn)

Atomic Bombs & Destinies

October 29, 2017 / Mindy Grant / 11 Comments

There's no going back now. One little bag and a 15-minute infusion, and we're on the fast track to a wipe out. We met with our oncologist, Dr. Eagen, and our head nurse, Vanessa, on Friday for the final workup and to sign all the consent forms for the high-dose chemotherapy Corey was to receive … Continue reading Atomic Bombs & Destinies

Major League Stuff

October 23, 2017October 28, 2017 / Mindy Grant / 9 Comments

Thursday afternoon we got the call we've been waiting for. 233 days after we received Corey's diagnosis, we got the call that they're ready for transplant.

Hearts, Holding Patterns & Home

We left off the other day with Corey spinning a few hundred million stem cells through a medical crazy straw. If you'll remember, he responded astoundingly well to the growth factor shots and had a superhuman amount of stem cells and a white blood cell count that was through the roof. They were shooting to … Continue reading Hearts, Holding Patterns & Home

No Big [Superhuman] Deal…

October 8, 2017 / Mindy Grant / 6 Comments

What a few days! Corey was released from the hospital Friday, after testing negative for any kind of viral infection. He never even registered a fever on any of their thermometers, but he ended up being pretty happy he'd been admitted with how the pain hit him Thursday. And with ZERO immune system, you can't … Continue reading No Big [Superhuman] Deal…

The Fellowship of Suffering

October 6, 2017October 6, 2017 / Mindy Grant / 13 Comments

I love city lights. Yes, I'm a beach girl and could look out at the water all. day. long. But I love to look out at a big ol', well-lit city at night. Which works out well because I'm smack in the middle of downtown tonight, and I even have a peek-a-boo view of the … Continue reading The Fellowship of Suffering
