Wednesday, Chuck spent 8 hours off the ventilator. Thursday he was scheduled for 12 hours breathing on his own. In addition, he is talking. the doctors are amazed because there was concern about damage to his vocal chords from the ventilator tube. He is no longer in the intensive care ward but he is still being treated for pneumonia and DAH. He will eventually be transferred to the bone marrow ward. Khalifa and I conferenced in with Dr Polchi on messenger recently and Dr Polchi told me that when BMT is used for treating lymphoma that some host vs graft disease is necessary for the lymphoma to be wiped out. So, Chuck will have that to look forward to. It's a long road after BMT as we saw with Abdulwahab and it's a dangerous road at times. At least for the moment, things are looking up.

Chuck has been off the ventilator for a few days now and has been breathing on his own with no trouble. He has been eating and has a good appetite, which is good because he lost 50 pounds. His muscle mass is gone and he can't move much on his own, so he will need a lot of physical therapy. He won't be going home soon because he needs to rebuild some muscle and also strengthen his immune system before he is exposed to the outside world. He has been moved to the bone marrow ward so that conditions are basically more sterile. When his wife stopped by yesterday, the sense of relief was obvious. She's been through so much the past few months but is holding together really well, but she can use a break.

Thank you all for your prayers and wishes.
Andy
