Kara went into the hospital last week for her stem cell collection but unfortunately her bone marrow did not make any. Her doctor thinks that her bone marrow may not be healthy enough. We are moving on to Plan B where I will donate my cells to her. I am supposed to get a call from the nurse practitioner tomorrow to get the ball rolling. Her docs want her to wait until after Christmas to give her body time to recover. Here is a great article on stem cell donation if you would like to read more information about how I will be donating!

She will be coming down to Memphis along with mom, Ken, and Skylar to spend Christmas with us. The kids can't wait for them to get here! This will be the first Christmas for them to come to us so we are excited!
