So the reason for the "T - Plus" count is this. Transplant day is "0" and "10" is usually when the graft has established in the marrow and begun to produce blood. That is all on schedule. They also look to Day 100 as another marker to pass showing the transplant is functioning well and graft vs host is under control. So we are shooting for T- Plus 100.
I was discharged from the hospital and we are staying in an apt for a month or so depending how things go. For at least a week to 2 weeks I will come in for infusions on a daily basis and blood draws and monitoring and that will take pretty much the morning plus more if something comes up. I'm feeling well and it looks like the graft is taking. As we all know anything can happen as we go along so we are very mindful of being cautious. This post is a little late and will try to update tonight again.
