Day 124 – Spoons!

Jeff spent some time in his shop today, a little while in the morning and again in the afternoon.  He turned a spoon and started another, both with handles that look like syringes.  He intends them as gifts for Jackie and Heather, the two transplant nurses at Dr. Porter’s office.  He said his grip seemed to be good and he was satisfied with his control. 

To me, this is happier news than any blood test or biopsy result.  However, Jeff did not seem to impress himself with his abilities.  He said, “Well, I mowed the grass yesterday.”  Just another day in the life of our 124-day-old BMT patient.
