Leukapheresis Provenge

Thanks to all of you who kept me in your thoughts last Friday as I had my first leukapheresis experience.  Leukapheresis is a blood collection procedure where they take out all the blood, remove a small percentage of white blood cells that later get super charged, and in a 3 hour procedure return all the blood back to the body.  Today I will get the super charged white blood cells infused back into my body to jump start my immune system to better fight my cancer.  Friday as I meditated, I experienced the grace of three highly skilled nurses, and MaryBeth’s love in a world that cares.  Look for grace today in your relationships with others.
