In this blue cooler is Aiden's new immune system blue prints! We dont know who the donor is or where they live etc. It is all confindential until 1 year after transplant. Then if everyone consents we can contact one another. Not sure what was going on with me in this picture, but I am obviously horrified by the Barney that was playing on TV at the time :)
Here's what it looks like. Because the donor is AB+ and Aiden is A+ blood type they have to be a little more careful when they run it in. They will be doing over 4 hours, then we wait 4 hours then run a second dose for another 4 hours to make sure that we dont overload Aiden's body or send it into some kind of reaction from the difference. His new blood type will be AB+ like the donor.
Getting ready to start the first dose! YAY! We made it this far and Aiden's donor is young (early 20's) healthy and a 10 out of 10 match which is so AWESOME! Couldn't have asked for better. What a blessing - we are so excited.
