This week’s recovery has been slow and steady; but GOOD. I’ve been able to maintain in the outpatient clinic. Right now, I’m going every other day. This is when they check my labs and supplement anything my body needs. This is also when I meet with my provider. On my off days, my mom and I have been exploring out of the neighborhood bubble to get in my daily walk.

This coming week I start Stem Cell Fitness! It’s physical therapy specifically for stem cell patients and I am ecstatic to start rebuilding my strength. I may not be Orangetheory ready but at least it’ll be something a little more than my daily walks.

Specific prayer requests for the week:

September 13: Repeat PET scan & bone marrow biopsy

September 14: I am anxiously sharing this as the tentative date of when I will get to visit with my children since I started the SCT. My provider approved an outside visit, with appropriate precaution (hand washing, masks, etc) so long as everyone is HEALTHY. I cannot stress this last part enough, a sniffle could cancel this visit.

IF YOU INTERACT WITH MY KIDS PLEASE DON’T SHARE THIS VISIT WITH THEM.

I don’t want to disappoint them, so they won’t know it’s happening until it’s actually happening. Please friends, pray all the stars align so that I can visit my babies. It’s been 33 days since I’ve gotten to hug them and my mama heart can only take so much longer.

Thank you for being a part of my healing journey,

Danielle
