Day +382

It has been long overdue, so here is an epic picture, taken on the 13th of August, 2013
Ryan Zimmerman, August 13, 2014
Above you see Ryan donating his stem cells that would be flown to Portland and given to Zev the next day.  Talk about blood brothers!

On August 14th of this year we made contact to mutual delight.  Unfortunately Ryan was not able to join us at the Cape (more info and a few images to follow), but had a blast talking on the phone several times that day.

Turns out Ryan's brother Eric lives in Boston and Alla and I were treated to a brunch with our donor's brother.
August 23, 2015, at Newbury st
We met the first member of our new family (they are stuck with us!) and many wonderful things about Ryan and Eric and their parents Linda and Keith.  Can't wait to meet them all.  And we are working on it.  Mum for now.
