Subject: It's on

I am now receiving the last of the stem cells from my brother.  Talk about 
undramatic.  My previous description of about 1 liter of killians is based on 
talking to a survivor who apparently got cells from bone marrow surgery.  
These are from my brother's peripheral blood, and it looks like 1/2 cup (130 
cc) of diluted campbells tomato soup.  Um, Um, Good.   Feel free to celebrate 
further with a toasted chees and soup lunch tomorrow, just like I used to get 
on Friday's in grammar school.  The bag has just emptied after about 25 
minutes.  I could have easily slept through the whole thing.  There was a 
slight chance of an allergic reaction to this blood product, just like there 
is with other whole blood or platelet donations, but, as has been normal 
throughout all this, nothing is happening.

If anyone is out there and wants to do converse, please let me know through 
email.  I will be signing off in about 1/2 hour (6:40 denver time) to free up 
the phone, as I expect many calls tonight.

More later.

Dave

ps:  I am now an official Pisces/Libra.  Somebody do my chart.  Maybe I 
should call up the Psychics Friends network and let them stew on that one.
