– As a follow-up to my hospital stay last week… I had an appointment at the
Cancer Center on Monday, August 24th. I am sure it wouldn't surprise
you that I would encounter a challenge or two. With this visit my heart rate ran
a low 30. At one point I actually had an episode where I passed out in the
hospital bathroom. I had a team of doctors work on me, perform CPR, pound on my
chest and get me back to consciousness. It would seem that it was most likely
due to a too high dosage of the steroids I am on called prednisone that is for
managing GVHD. It does appear that everything is starting to stabilize. I am
hoping that I will be discharged over the next few days.
Lord my God, I called to you for help, and you healed me.

come…

Hi Rich, I just checked in to see that you have been a busy guy. I am sure I am the only who will say, great you have gvhd. Now let's just keep that to a minimum, ok? Prayers that the prednisone is kind to you, and you are now on your way to that cure! Praying for you.
Hey Anonymous,
Oh, keeping the GVHD I something we plan to keep in check. The past two weeks have been a little exhausting but I am thinking it is all for a good reason and the beginning of what will lead to a cure. Thank You for your continued support and prayers.
