(not necessarily in that order)
Just to clarify, I’ll be receiving what they call an “autologous” bone marrow transplant. That means they’ll be harvesting my own stem cells and then returning them into my bone marrow. As the transplant doctor put it, a better description would be to call it a “replant” instead of a “transplant”!
I’m sharing this because three people so far have offered to donate bone marrow if I needed it, which moves me very deeply.
I mean, talk about feeling loved and supported!
Usually when a package arrives in the mail it’s an item Ramesha or I ordered, which we’re eagerly awaiting. But something arrived yesterday — addressed to me — which wasn’t from any of the usual sources. The return address was that of a friend, but I still had no idea what it could be.
Well…! In a recent blog post I had mentioned the shawl from my Ananda Assisi days, which I had inadvertently ruined it in the wash, and how sad I had been about it.
So…! Peggy read that blog post and the shawl in the photo reminded her of one she owned. The colors weren’t entirely right for her but she thought I might enjoy it.
How sweet is that?!?
The colors are beautiful, indeed, but way more important is the sense of being loved and supported by divine mother, expressing through Peggy’s sweet and thoughtful friendship.
Thank you, Peggy! 💗
