Sad.. His note was inspiring.. I hope he does well and is a poster boy for success. He said he has 30 books to complete... I hope he hits that number. But I also hope they aren't all wheel of time. :)

I heard about this a little while ago. If he's got 30 books to go I hope he survives and start writing. My dad is a big fan of his books and i have also had the pleasure of reading his books.

Hopefully he pulls through.

If all goes well with the transplant he should be in remission a few years, unless he's coming in with a massive light chain count in his urine. But usually txplant candidates have low counts or good pr/cr to chemo.
