Things have been going pretty well for Derrick since he's been home. He is getting outdoors when he can, eating some of his favorite things and spending quality time with Mindy and the fam at home. Today, Derrick and Mindy traveled to Lewisburg to spend the night in their apartment, gather some more "stuff", and visit with Mindy's family. Mindy's niece (Bella) and nephew (Donovan) were delighted to see them, as was the rest of Mindy's family.
We received a call yesterday from the transplant coordinator at Hershey who told us that Marcy is not a match for Derrick. Derrick's doctors will now be evaluating non-related donors for a possible stem cell transplant match. If you would like further information as to how you could be considered, please see my previous post regarding the National Bone Marrow (Stem Cell) Registry. If you have some questions about the program, please feel free to call us and we will try to answer them or get the answers for you.
Thanks again to all of you who are supporting and encouraging us during this difficult time.
