[at-l] Stem Cell transplant

[gbuffmd@bigfoot.com (Gary Buffington)]

This list and the PA Ruck were instrumental in our successful Thru-hike.  We
want to share a true joyful morning and deeper subject.  At 3:15 AM PST this
morning our son-in-law Chris received a Stem Cell Transplant (from a donor
in Germany) for treatment of leukemia here in Seattle at the Fred Hutchinson
Cancer Research Center.  He visited us several times on the trail and would
like to do the AT some day.  Ten years ago our daughter-in-law was cured of
the exact same type of leukemia with a bone marrow transplant at the same
center.  We look for the same cure in Chris.
The list has been good for us as we go through Chris' illness.
