Sam received an infusion of equine ATG (anti-thymocyte globulin) today. This is basically a horse-derived serum that will suppress his immune system and create a friendly environment for his new stem cells. It comes with a long list of side effects, but he slept through most of it thanks to some good drugs. They just had to pause the infusion after 9 hours because he broke out in hives. They're running some Benadryl and hopefully he'll be finished before midnight.
