Hello everyone...it’s been quite some time since I have written and many things have changed. Some of those things include moving, buying our first house, and finishing my masters; but I think the biggest change of all is giving birth to our daughter. I will be the first to say being a mom, despite everything… Continue reading It’s Been A While!

One Year Later…
I’m sorry I haven't written recently, but October 27th marked my one-year “Stemversary”. I wanted to give a quick update on how I am feeling and what I have been up to. All in all, I would say that in the last year I have seen many improvements. Although I would not consider myself in… Continue reading One Year Later…
Month 9 Update
Hello everyone, I just wanted to briefly give an update on how things are going. The last month or so I have been really struggling with pain, fatigue, stress, and being sick. I developed pretty bad bronchitis again and unfortunately have not been able to get rid of my cough. My pain is intense, which… Continue reading Month 9 Update
A Quick 6 Month Update!
Hi Everyone, I know it’s been a while since I have written anything. Things have been pretty busy with graduate school, my internship, wedding planning, and just life in general.

Day 100
I can’t believe it’s been one hundred days since I received my stem cells. It truly has been a roller coaster. Tyler and I celebrated by going to see country artists Kane Brown and Chris Young on Friday! Coming back from Germany, I was feeling tired but a little better than when I had left.… Continue reading Day 100
Week 11: Hoping To Get Back To Where I Was Before
I felt pretty good when I got back from Germany initially. I was just really tired, but my pain was better (not gone but better) and I had a little more energy than normal. Then about a month ago I got an upper respiratory infection and it all seemed to go downhill from there. After… Continue reading Week 11: Hoping To Get Back To Where I Was Before

Day 19: Tuesday November 14th
It’s been 19 days since I received my stem cells and a lot has happened since then, more in the means of my personal life than anything. After being back in Maine for a week, I had to hop on another plane to make my way home to the Bahamas so that I could attend… Continue reading Day 19: Tuesday November 14th
My Final Week of Treatment at Villa Medigrun
The weekend after receiving my stem cells was a little rough. We stayed in for the most part and our weekend consisted of movies, card games, and resting. I ended up not getting that much sleep, but I don't believe this was a result of my stems. A week or so before coming to Villa… Continue reading My Final Week of Treatment at Villa Medigrun
The Wait Is Over….It’s STEM CELL DAY
Friday October 27th: Stemmzellen Tag (stem cell day)! Phil and I were fortunate enough to be getting our stems at the same time and we were both excited and nervous as it got closer and closer to this very special day - oh, and dreading the 3.5 hour drive! I did not really sleep the… Continue reading The Wait Is Over….It’s STEM CELL DAY
