It's all really happening!
We met with the bone marrow transplant team and signed all the consent forms today (Jacob had to sign as well.) They are planning to admit him May 19th to begin the high dose chemo they call "conditioning." That would put "day zero," the day they actually transfuse his stem cells, on May 27th. He'll be at Packard for at least 30 days and at Ronald McDonald House accross the street for at least another 30.
As part of the preparation for the transplant he had an echo-cardiogram, which was extremely interesting.

And an EKG, and several xrays and more than 40 cc worth blood tests, which were boring:

And Cyber Knife is tomorrow at 2:00 pm.
