Hiya everyone, don't know how many here know, but I've been battling AML Leukemia since January. In May I had a bone marrow transplant, and just passed my 100 day mark. I'll get results from the bone marrow biopsy this Friday to see if I'm cancer free. It's been a long hard road in and out of the hospital, being sick, I lost 100 pounds,I lost all my hair from the chemo and radiation, which is starting to grow back, I'm on 16 pills twice a day, and home infusion of fluids, a 2 hour a day drip. I had to sell my 75 Trans AM but still have my baby my 69 Firebird 400 Vert. Getting back on track I'm starting to feel better, but still weak at times. Just wanted to keep my First Gen Family up to date. Hope you are all well!!!

Good for you! My father had non-hodgkins lymphoma and went through a bone marrow transplant several years ago and is doing well...I know first hand what you've been going through...wouldn't wish it on anyone.
Congrats! And best of luck on getting and staying in remission!
