Is there anyone who'se had a stem cell transplant prepared to help me?
I'm due to have a stem cell transplant very soon as part of a clinical trial. I've got lots of technical info but I'd like to talk informally about the procedure & living with immuno-suppresents afterwards. Any takers? Talking to a doctor over a cup of tea might help but they're not willing to do so

Message from the residential home for the elderly.
As there was a possibility I would need a
bone
graft
from my hip (good luck in finding it!) he felt it would be too much to do. I told him of my need to do ballet again though so he promised he would try.

The Great American Bucket List Tour Continues
Lori and I have been in Las Cruces since October 1 and last Wednesday we decided it's time to see new things. We will be moving west down Interstate 10 to the little city of Deming, New Mexico. The county seat of Luna County, Deming has four state parks within a half hour or so radius. Migratory birds

Balance Problems...
I was diagnosed with PD in 1998, probably had it a couple of years before that. I also have hypertension, coronary artery disease and had a heart attack and a 4-vessel coronary-artery-bypass-graft this past June. So when I say I have "balance problems," there are many possible causes. I already know

Welcome to my life...... HS... I hate it!!!! :)
I contracted HS when I was 18. (32 years ago - Yeah! I'm old). I was told straight off from a works nurse that it was only dirty people who get puss lumps under their arms.

Bone Marrow Transplants
I know this is off topic, but I think it is something that is really important. Adrian Sudbury started a petition to make it compulsory for kids to learn about bone marrow and plateleys donation. He's trying to get to 10,000 signitures by the 23rd of this month! Give him a hand people! http://petitions.pm.gov.uk

Is it life changing?........
Cancer has touched a number of family members throughout my life - not that long at 44, but it really affected me most when my Mother was diagnosed at 50 and died at 51. I must admit, it had a pretty profound affect on me and my family and although it was over 15 years ago it still remains with
