Day 0!! My Stem Cell Birthday! May 7th, 2017!

                                            Day 0!!

Sorry I didn't post yesterday, Day 0,  my stem cell birthday!!
Yesterday was an emotional, great day! Seeing my 309 million stem cells infused back into my body, gives me hope  that my MS has stopped progressing!!

I have so many people to thank from Clinica Ruiz! Their care and compassion has been outstanding!
The doctors, nurses, receptionists, all have taken such great care of us!🎉

The MOSC(Medical Outpatient Services Company) Xavier, in particular, has gone above and beyond his job for us!! He has been our driver,  picking us up at the airport, making sure we get to the Clinic on time,  transportation to the hospital for our PICC line placement, and for our consultations with neurologist/cardiologist, a  handyman, our interpreter, tour guide, and most of all our friend!! He is a truly compassionate, nice guy!! We couldn't have done this without him!! We love you Xavier💕

Our maid, Sina, who comes to our apartment almost everyday! She has done a superb job keeping our apartment so nice and clean! I want to take her home with me!!😀

I thank all of the patients here whom have gone through this whole experience with us! They have become like family, and have been a great support! We will be forever connected!
May 7th, 2017, the 4 of us will share our new birthday!! From the UK, Norway, Canada, and USA!

A huge thank you to all of our carers!! They do so much, shopping, cooking, making sure we take our meds, and just a great support!! Thank you Dave, the best hubby, carer anyone could have! I love you😘

And, all of you who have loved, supported, encouraged, and prayed for us! We are so thankful!!

Thank you to our families who have always been here for us! We love you so much!! 💕

                                 May 7th, 2017, my new stem cell birthday!


Our group, the fabulous 4, having our celebration, with a birthday card, cupcakes, and an awesome t-shirt given to us by the Clinica Ruiz!!


Hopefully my new immune system will have stopped the progression of MS, and I will regain some function!! C'mon stem cells!!







I am now in isolation for 7-10 days! I love and miss you all!!

Alex, Zach, Meghan, Eva, and Gus, we love you and miss you!😘
Alex, thanks for taking care of Gus! I know he loves you!🐕

Mom and Dad I think about you everyday! Only 2 more weeks! We love you so much and am praying that you are well! We miss you and will try and call you again!
Kim and Dave💕💕
