Success !
They collected 2.08 million cells today ~ when combined with what they collected last week, she now has 2.54 million stem cells in the freezer. We will spend another night at the hospital for a second collection tomorrow, and then they will send her home. We will get a clarification about the minimum number needed for a transplant later today. We were originally told 5 million, but the technician who did the procedure said that number is 'padded' for back up. We will ask the doctor later when he stops by. Lindsey just finished a big dreamy piece of strawberry cheesecake from The Cheesecake Factory, and we're having Maggiano's appetizers for dinner tonight ! Yummm...........
