Hi Everyone. Its Kim again. Unfortunately Wallace isn't quite up to writing on the blog today. He does finally have Internet in his room and can receive emails, facebook messages and of course comments on the blog and enjoys the messages (I think he is bored of me already)
Wallace had his transplant yesterday and it went fast and easy. He didn't feel that great afterwards....almost flu like, but started getting a bit better in the evening. The doctor doing the transplant told us that this type of transplant is no different than that of a liver or kidney transplant. The only difference is that he won't have a scar. The trauma to the body and recovery is the same, but so far he has handled it well.
Today he was feeling a bit better and his blood counts were still ok, so he was permitted out of the ward for 5 hours, but we had to return after 3 because he was too worn out and sick. He started getting sick after lunch and hasn't really eaten today. We hope that this is temporary although they keep warning us that he will get worse as the week progresses.
Thank you all for your prayers, we appreciate them all.
