Aaron and I met with Dr. Goldman and Kelly, the Transplant Coordinator, to go over all of the consent forms, potential problems/infections pre and post-transplant, etc.  Very scary stuff, but we have faith that Cutler will get through these next couple of months with a complete cure of his AML.  We appreciate all of your prayers and comments on the blog.  A special thanks to Aunt Pat who heads home on Monday…she has been here since before Halloween!  My mom and Aaron’s mom will be here during the transplant and afterwards, providing us relief in the hospital and comfort knowing Mason is being allowed ice cream BEFORE dinner!  I would be remiss if I didn’t thank Grammy for spending today with Cutler, especially since no one but me, Aaron, Carol and Betty will be allowed to hold Cutler until he is released from the hospital (30-60 days).  Other family will be allowed to visit us in the family waiting room at the hospital with a peek at Cutler through the window in his door.  This will have to suffice until his release…

That’s it for now.  Continued prayers are appreciated as Cutler still has a long road ahead of him.  We (I should say, Aaron) will do our best to keep up the blog and post pictures.
