Once again our day started with Gary getting two shots in his belly. They took a blood draw to see how Gary is doing making stem cells. If the number was at least a 10, they would proceed to harvesting tomorrow. Around noon today, we received a phone call that Gary's number was a 12! Gary was so happy to no longer need the shots. They are not pleasant at all. So, tomorrow at 8am, Gary will go in to be hooked up to a machine for 4-5 hours as they start to harvest the cells. This will go on for 3-5 days, depending on how well he is at giving up his blood.
