Stem Cells at Work

Well it's been a couple weeks since I've been home, and I think the stem cells are starting to work.  I've only had a few muscle spasms, as opposed to multiple ones a day, and I've definitely had a lot more energy.  The first couple of days home, I was very tired from the travel, but I felt much better after that.  I know the doctors say it can take up to 6 months to feel the full effects of the treatments. I'm really excited to see what each and every day brings. 

I am sad to report that Nick has not been doing well since I've been home.  He had an infected pilonidal cyst that had to be removed by a general surgeon.  The poor guy has a pretty big wound that has to be packed several times a day.  Good thing I have more energy than I used to so I can take good care of him.  His recovery has been about a week so far, and the doctor predicts it will be another week before he can return to work. 

So I haven't decided for sure, but I have been thinking that maybe I might look into working part-time.  It really is difficult since I never know how I'm going to be feeling, but I think something part-time would be ok.  Maybe the stem cells will continue to kick in and then I will be feeling like my old self again.  I will keep everyone posted on the job situation as it unfolds...
