The doctors have now officially diagnosed John with acute graft versus host disease. The treatment began an hour after the diagnosis was made. He will be on a course of steroid which will calm the battle down that has caused John's sickness. He will then be tapered off them as his body grows stronger. I wish I could explain that better but I am not a doctor lol
It's been a tough 3 weeks but it's nice to think John may be home in a week.
We are unsure at this point how this set back will effect the overall success of the transplant. Only time will tell. For today we are pleased to have some news.
Wicked. Pass on my thoughts. I shall give him the pleasure of watching me get drunk next time I see him. x
