Day +596 Update – Surreal. Happy Tears. HSCT4MS!

This blows my mind. It’s just surreal to be able to be “me” again! HSCT has allowed me to be able to have hope again!

One year ago today Mobilization began!

Time to relive some awesome past moments, starting with my very first video on the evening of January 28, 2017!

I can’t believe I started this journey one year ago!

Here is my first (Only seen by a few!) official HSCT video in Prentice from the late night after my Mobilization chemo.  I look back on this time and I remember exactly how I felt… I can’t believe I was speaking so slowly!  I was quite run down but full of hope!

I’d be going back to the hotel the next day to continue Mobilization with Neupogen shots and then the Harvest of my stem cells.  It’s so crazy how I felt right then and there, in that moment.

It was REAL, yet so SURREAL.
