Day -2

The chemotherapy is completed! Ron continues to deal with some nausea, but he hasn't vomited today. He isn't interested in eating much, but we are hopeful that his appetite will return some by tomorrow. Today he has started taking by IV an immunosuppressive drug (tacrolimus) in preparation of the transplant-- to lower the risk of rejection of the new stem cells. Everything continues to be on schedule, and his doctor says that he is tolerating everything very well.
