This is the Biography of me, Alexander Salsitz (I prefer Xander). I am a 13 year old boy who's life changed in January 2012 when I was diagnosed with MDS (Myelodysplastic Syndrome). I have had 3 bone marrow transplants since then, the most recent one in April 2013. This blog documents my journey, beginning with my diagnosis, treatment, and ongoing recovery.

My Birthday
Thank you all for the Birthday wishes and cards and presents. I am so happy to be 9!
Hope all is well with you guys. Maybe I'll see you the next time Rhondi and I come to visit. I missed you last time because one of you had a cold or something. Darn!
We really had fun celebrating your birthday with you and hope you had a great time too. You have the strength and wisdom of the phoenix. Just like the sun broke through the clouds last night during the story of the phoenix, you, too, will come through this. The phoenix, the sun and you! We love you and hope you feel better today.
Dear Xan,
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a fun filled B-day with ALOT of birthday wishes!
Love, Rachel
