Jim was up again all night with the diarea. It's getting old. But, the good news is he was finally able to swallow some Immodium. He'll be taking that three times a day until he becomes regular. Thank God! He had some pudding this morning. He is on a puree diet. I'll be making suggestions throughout the day. We just went for a walk. It's nice to get out and see all of our favorite Nurses. Everyone here is so supportive of Jim's progress. They moved us to a new room yesterday. It just so happens to be the same room he was in when he was undergoing chemotherapy before the transplant. Jim likes the view better on this side of the hospital. Water - sailboats, skulls, and the like. I was reading up on the history of Stem Cell Transplants last night. Dr. Thomas is the one who started the program here in Seattle in 1969. He actually won the Nobel Peace Prize for the role he played in Research. This place attracts people from all over the world. There is a Nurse's Aid here from Ethiopia. Jim had a Nurse at the Clinic from Nairobi. Even our Cleaning Guy was from Nicaragua yesterday. Our doctor right now is from England. It's fascinating to me. I love it!!!!!
