Visiting Mom and Jack in Baltimore

My step-father, Jack, was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma about 4 years ago. He had the wonderful opportunity to recieve a bone marrow transplant that began on Palm Sunday. Both he and my mom have been doing phenominally well. Jack has been a good patient and hasn't had any infections so far which is great news. He still has a few weeks to go before his immune system finally drops to the bottom and then comes back up with his new, healthier marrow. My mom is being a wonderful nurse, as you can see. The strength and peace they have both had through this has been inspiring. They will be moving back home to Annapolis in about 3 weeks time and are looking forward to it! Thank you to everyone for your prayers and support of them while they go through this. We love you, Mom and Jack!
