My brother went in today to harvest his bone marrow and did very well. They made 2 incisions and went into his bone 150 times and it took 1hr. and 30min. The Dr. said he was "juicy" which is a good thing. Some of the side effects he could possibly experience is fatigue and tenderness. But, so far he is doing great. The Dr. said it will take up to 6 weeks to fully restore what was harvested. Denise received the bone marrow at 4:07pm and she will receive it intravenously. The process will take 2 hrs. We will know in 15 to 20 days if it has graphed into her body.
BTW this is her sister Cindy blogging for her today.
