Hello everyone! Today is the day we dreamed of. We received AJ's one year test results. His heart and lung function is normal, as is his thyroid and growth hormone. His blood counts are the strongest they have ever been, and his engraftment studies showed 95% donor marrow, which in the words of his doctor "is excellent." His immune studies are now normal and he can begin to receive vaccinations (a side-effect of chemo and prep for transplant is that his entire immune system was wiped out, including all previous vaccinations, so he is much like a newborn baby and we must start over.) All of this being said, our prayers have been answered and our little boy has conquered this horrible illness. We are thrilled, and relieved, and thankful!!!
Your love and support throughout this year has given us the strength to make it through. We love each and every one of of you!
All our love,
The Reveras
Here are a few photos of his big day of tests and of our lunch at Buca on the way home.
