I am supposed to be resting. I am at home for the afternoon. Tom is at the hospital. Tom just called. The news was so good I am still crying. Alison, the bone marrow coordinator just informed Tom that in the world wide donor lists there are potentially 80 matches to Riley and 10 good matches with perhaps 8 out of 8 first criteria. I don't want my baby to be sick at all, but this gives us hope. If the ATG does not work we still have hope and another avenue. All those prayers are working.
We weren't sure they would still run the screening after we started ATG. Some times insurance balks until they find out if the ATG works or not. Its a $20,000 cost to run the comparison. I am not going to give up on ATG. I want Riley well, yesterday. But it feels good to know this is not a dead end.
