day 1

Yesterday was Day 0.  The actual transplant day.  It went very well.  Anticlimactic.  Counts have dropped.  Joy abounds. Peace.  The siblings were able to be here.  This is good so that they can have some kind of connection.  We had food and it was good.  Now we pray as he enters the hardest part.  It's weird because he has to have this plethora of IV meds to protect and manage his system while he has no counts and to keep his body from rejecting the cells and yet that is what starts to make him feel worse and cause it's own set of symptoms.

Why MAGNANIMUS?

Noah Webster's 1828 Dictionary of the American Language defines Magnanimity as such:
MAGNANIM'ITY, n. [L. magnanimitas; magnus, great, and animus, mind.] Greatness of mind; that elevation or dignity of soul, which encounters danger and trouble with tranquillity and firmness, which raises the possessor above revenge, and makes him delight in acts of benevolence, which makes him disdain injustice and meanness, and prompts him to sacrifice personal ease, interest and safety for the accomplishment of useful and noble objects.
