G'day ‘Stoners

An update fyi.

I got discharged from Royal Melbourne Hospital yesterday; on day 19 of what I was originally told would be initially 45 days in hospital of a 100 day process.

Haematology Drs assessed me as being 9.5 out of 10 and underlined that I’ve been through “an incredibly complex experience”, and am “now in transition, but that the recovery process is just as important.”
They also warned me that half who get discharged get readmitted but that's normal if I develop a fever (cumulative side effect of all the chemo), and would only be for a short duration.

I’m still under the Bone Marrow Transplant Team for a while yet. The Trial Team will blend in again later.

Appointments at Peter MacCallum Cancer Research Hospital regularly for a while (remainder of the 100 day process), and that's my new horizon...

I trust all is well with the Chocky crew.

I’ll follow up this post with another soon in more detail for any interested, but thought I’d share the good news in a nutshell.
