To begin..

Thank you everyone for your interest in my health. When there’s doubt, assume I’m fine. Maybe too busy to post an update, though.

Current plan at the Scottsdale Mayo is for start of Neupogen on 2/18, port on 2/20, and pheresis collection of stem cells that week followed by admission for melphalan on 2/27 (designated Day -2) and rescue reinfusion of stem cells 2/29 (Day 0). Typically patients are discharged around Day 15 with gradual return to full strength by Day 100. The statistics for success in this program are remarkable though of course anything is possible. Nancy or I will try to provide updates as things unfold.

Love,
Tim
