Surgery was a bit complicated....they put in the new "central venous catheter" and tested it and it did not work, so they had to take it out and put another one in. So the thirty minute surgery turned out to be two hours. I was only slightly extremely anxious, but that too is behind us. They've just given him his first transfusion of his new blood type, O+. Hard to understand how one day of chemo makes it work, but it is so, the cells are "washed". So when his new cells arrive next week they'll be in familiar O+ surroundings, with just a bit of A+ mixed in for the time being. Tomorrow is day -6.
