Jill Update

The purpose of this weblog was to keep Jill's family and friends current on her treatment for Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Jill passed away on January 20, 2013 after a 10 year battle against the disease and the side effects of her many treatments. This blog will now serve as a memorial to Jill. Please feel free to add your comments and thoughts.

Halloween in Seattle

There isn't much new to report on Jill's treatment. She continues to recover and get her strength back after her last chemo treatment. She has been getting some blood transfusions as needed to increase her blood cell counts. Until her body starts producing red bloods cells in sufficient quantities, their level drops and she feels tired. The transplant is still planned for November 15. In the meantime Jill and Sylvia are getting out occassionally for exercise and fun. They attended a Halloween party in their apartment complex this weekend and enjoyed that. They are getting to meet some of their neighbors, all of whom are Hutchinson Center patients or family members.
