Update on Bill and responses to others

Post #73
Hi everyone, Bill continues to do well on his journey.  He has celebrated another birthday and in November will be seven years post transplant.

Kathryn - you just posted to the blog a few minutes ago.  I am sorry that you loved one has received the news that they have T-PLL.  Bill and I would be happy to speak with you via e-mail or by phone. As we have done in the past with others, please post a message with your e-mail address or phone number and we will get it.  We will not publish the message so you personal information will be safe.

Update on a dear friend that had T-PLL - On Post #73 in November of 2016, I indicated that Larry Basil was have problems post transplant.  In December of 2016 Larry Basil lost his battle with T-PLL.  He left behind his wife Donna who was a wonderful caregiver.  Bill and I went to his funeral and continue to keep in touch with Donna.  A few weeks ago, we spent four days in Alabama visiting with Donna and we had a great time. We only knew Larry for a little more than a year, but it seemed like a life time.   Rest in peace Larry.
