Transplant has been completed (Day Zero) around 2:40pm - 3:05pm EST. Hard to explain the feeling, but all done and Lauren sat through it talking to the team carrying out the procedure. She's surprisingly well right now, but we've been warned she won't remain like this and is now neutropenic (zero resistance to infection). She's still on morphine to manage the pain associated with Mucositis (see Update #22). 
The good news is no more Chemo!!!!! Yeah!!!!Now we sit and wait for her new stem cells to engraft and reproduce like 'rabbits' as Kathryn said through a text message to Lauren. The next 10 - 28 days are key and her blood counts will be closely monitored to see what is happening with the formation on new cells. Graft V's Host conflict is a neccessity but hopefully won't be as bad as some stories we've heard.
By the way, anyone who saw "Saving Kids" on Channel 10 a couple of months ago, where a young boy was having a bone marrow transplant - the room they filmed the boy in is the one Lauren has now - a bit of trivia. We're also next door to another Adelaide family, Louisa, who may be going home soon, after a successful transplant.
