Day +2 (new year eve)

First note. . . Tahara-san & Yasuko-san. . . . Thank you! You are very kind (we all already knew that) and Yuko and I are looking forward to returning the kindness in the new year! Can't wait.

And another issue of great importance. . . . Judy left today to spend the night at Frankfurt airport before leaving tomorrow for a flight back to SFO. Judy, you have so greatly helped us more than my words can express. Thank you times a thousand times! We're looking forward to showing a true appreciation of your (and Tif, too!) sacrifice in the New Year. Here's to wishing you a great flight!

Day 0 - Stem cell transplant / infusion Birthday

It's now Tuesday morning here in Heidelberg. Yuko and Judy have arrived for the big day and snapped these pictures to memorialize the event of the day. And today IS the day! And it could almost go unnoticed because my stem cell transplant infusion procedure only takes a matter of minutes to complete. Perhaps about fifteen-to-twenty minutes, or so. It could easily be described as anticlimactic.

So Merry Christmas to everyone!

Sorry. This is the only "official" Yuko & George family Christmas portrait for this year. It'll have to do cause it's all you get, beyond our sincere thanks & appreciation to everyone. But just in case it's not obvious, I am extremely happy that Yuko is here with me during this whole process. I hope that I'll be able to make it up to her in the future.

Day -7 (First day of chemo)

First note: Johannes. . . .Thank you so much for your call today. I really appreciate hearing from you. I'm glad Tahara-san could hook us up. (BTW. . . are you sure MTSN is a great stock buy right now? Can I really make 350% on my money in two years? I'll go out and buy up 500,000 shares right away. Even though everyone else is telling me the stock is a dog. All because I trust you so much!)

Hospital check-in & catheter insertion

12/21/2009 - 13:35
George Goss
Today the hospital called me at about 10:30am. I then walked over to the hospital together with Judy and checked in around 11:30am. We met up with the nurse and she gave us a tour and explanation of the Ackermann ward. We quickly saw the hospital room where I will be staying and met my new hospital roommate. His name is Jergen and is closer to the end of his stem cell transplant recovery, as opposed to me where I’m still at the start. I’ll send pictures of the room on a future post. The main thing regarding the hospital stay is that it’s a little like 6th grade camp.
