Day After Stem Cell Treatment
February 18th, 2009
2-18-09
Joey has been resting all day. He is still having some pain in his neck, back and legs but not as severe as yesterday. He is weak and is hoping he will be able to have PT, OT & massage tomorrow. His apetite is not very good today but he is managing to drink plenty of water, as requested by all of his doctors. The good news is that one of Joey’s doctors told me that in her experience, the patients that experience more pain also experience the more positive results. The good stem cells are fight off the bad ones which is causing the pain and weakness.
Everyone here has been extremely caring and good to us both. I know that Joey is in good hands.

The pain and struggle will be worth it, if it makes him better.
Prayers and thoughts are with you guys. Hope you can have a glass of wine now and then, Dana.

It hurts me so much to hear he was in so much pain, but if it is the pain that proves the treatments are working, bring it on!
That sounds terrible but I really am hoping for every bit of the best and I know everything will turn swell in the long run. This will make him stronger. I hope to hear from the both of y’all soon. Please call me when you can!
Love y’all much!,
Rache
