98%!

We were back at the doctor's office today. Joe had his blood drawn, and his dressing change. Such excitement! But the really fun part was the visit with the doctor. After some chatting, he went to check on Joe's biopsy results. When the doctor returned, he announced that Joe is officially 98% female!!!!!! This means that he is 98% engrafted. Wonderful praise God news! Since that announcement, Joe just keeps hearing that he will likely become more feminine now as well as sweeter and more compassionate. Teehee. Joe of course is taking all the jokes like a man...or a woman. I don't know anymore. In any case, Joe's smile is as big as ever, and he continues to exude extreme positivity! Joe's biopsy also noted no more bad stuff, and all good stuff. Joe's celluarity, which is at 20-30% is still lower than the norm, which is around 60%. However, this is normal since he is only 38 days out from transplant. So all continues to go very, very well.

This evening, we had the pleasure of receiving a visit from some guys from our fellowship. It was so nice for Joe to hang out with some people outside of the family, and not over the phone! Thank you Geoff, Mammen, and Ray for stopping by!
