Wanted to give everyone an update on the Chair Guy...
He is doing pretty good. He ended up having 6 compression fractures total. He's had 3 kyphoplasty surgeries to cement those. (How did he do 14 chairs in October?) He's had his first stem cell transplant (sct) at the beginning of February. We are home recouping and getting ready for the second sct, which will be at the very end of April. He is having chemo between the two transplants (called bridging) to keep the cancer cells at bay. It is still a long road ahead, but we are feeling good about where we are so far. UAMS myeloma cancer institute has been wonderful and we have a great doctor and support team.
Thank you to all who have sent messages and included him in your prayers. We have been uplifted and can't wait to get back to the chairs! And back to the Ozark Folk Center!
