Back to Idaho!

The doctors said that they thought they would have enough stem cells by the end of today. They didn't get as many as they would have hoped but they thought it would be enough. So Mom and Dad will be coming home tomorrow. They don't finish the collection until about 4:30pm and then they have to come back so Dad can get more platelets at 7:00pm so they will get a good nights rest tonight and come home tomorrow. Mom said that dad was doing good but just really tired. She said his spirits were pretty good. But I am sure that is because he knows he will be able to come home tomorrow. The doctors want them to come back next Wednesday to get the rest of the process started. This is a lot faster than the 2 weeks we thought he would have. But the sooner he gets started the sooner he will be done. So it will be nice they can have a nice relaxing weekend and then they will have to go right back. Dad our thoughts and are prayers are with you always. It is so hard not to be able to run over and see how you are doing. We are so glad that you will be home soon.
