Here is a shot of Paul and me not long after his two-day stem cell transplant procedure was completed. On the wall behind me was the stem cell calendar that his medical team had put together. It referred to the days preceding the transplant as negative numbers counting down, (day "-7" being one week before his transplant process was started) while the days afterward were positive numbers counting up. So here we were on day "+1," relieved to be in the positive column. I love how determined he looks, hoisting a finger when he barely had the strength to do even that. He was ready for whatever fight was required to make it to day +2, +100, +200, or, as today would have been, day +638.
