Today, Steve had to go back to ICM and have more blood drawn. Then we went to CIMA Hospital for a rigorous physical therapy session, as well as his third intrathecal injection. The increase in endorphins, as a result of therapy, helps with the cell re-generation, which makes sense. When we got back to the apartotel, Steve laid down for five hours, while I walked up to Burger King. It was just time for some good ole' American junk food!
Tomorrow he only has physical therapy at 9am. Afterward, I hope to do a little bit of sight-seeing and shopping.
Interesting fact: the stem cells from one umbilical cord can treat 5000 people. So, the argument that people will have babies just for stem cell purposes is a myth. There really is no need for that.
