THE BIG DAY!!

Well today was the day! Day 0! Jaylee received her Bone Marrow Transplant today. First they had about 12 nurses and the BMT Doc's come in and sing Happy BMT Birthday to Jaylee, which was really fun and they gave her "Birthday" presents. They then brought the Red Cooler in and pulled out the bag of bone marrow which looks just like a blood transfusion bag! The Transplant took about 45 min. So far she is doing great, the only bad thing is, the preservative they put in the bone marrow smells SO BAD! and it just radiates off of her body! The smell will last a couple of days so I hope I can get used to it! They believe she will start to get sick in the next couple of days so please keep her in your prayers! Love you all!
