This blog is written by and about a guy with an incurable form of cancer. My purpose here isn't to say "woe is me", but to give insight about my thoughts, perspectives, and experiences throughout this adventure. My name is Andre. My partner's name is Ed. I intend to publish on a pretty regular basis here, but Ed might occasionally pop in with his thoughts too.

Sunday in the hospital with Andre
We are back in the hospital. Repeat cycle. We're tired. If any of you want to visit, he's in 8NE of the UW Hospital. Call or email me first to make sure he's awake enough to have company. He sleeps all day.
Ed, you and Andre do not know me but I read this blog regularly. I am all-too familiar with the UWMC, the SCCA, myeloma and GVHD. You both are in my daily thoughts and I just wanted you to know I was thinking of you and wishing you well.
Erich here in cowburg. I want you to know I'm rootin' for you. I need more of your great photos to look at.
The shack in arkyland was spared from the tornado that went through town in April and toothpicked 'bout a hundred houses. Missed us by 2 miles. The door is always open whenever you can make it!
Saint Ed, thanks a million for takin' care of Andre.
You don't know me but I do recall seeing Andre at the Hutch and saying "Hi" in passing now and then. I "ditto" Amy's comments up above (especially since she's my daughter).
I'll never say "I know what you're going through" because only the two of you "know." I will say that I understand what you're going through - and that deinitely includes Ed as a caregiver.
Hugs to both.

ReplyDelete*sigh*
ReplyDeleteGood thoughts on the way. I wish we were closer so I could be of more support. :(
Hey Andre,

Love ya both!
Keep up the hope and be kind with each other. This stuff sucks. You will make it through this one too...
ReplyDeleteMy hubby was on 8NE last week and I went by to say hi/meet Andre, but he must have been sleeping (even my loud knock didn't wake him).
Hugs to you both!
Andre & Ed;
ReplyDeleteI just wanted you to know I'm following your latest adventures. (?) I'm hoping the docs unravel the knots in the GVHD. Best wishes going forward.
Prayers and positive thoughts coming your way from Jersey.
ReplyDeleteHope things turn around real soon!
Andre and Ed,

My thoughts are with you throughout.
