Todays Clinic Visit

What a day! Day 154 since transplant. I'm writing tonight before I head to bed, for all those you are anxiously awaiting the news of the day. I hope it makes sense - I'm kinda sleepy!

Blood draw in isolation because Terry has a cold.
Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy - both sides - the most painful part of the day.
CT scan immediately after - no pain, just a long wait and hunger because he had to fast for this.
Visit with the doctors - another G shot - culture taken - nice visit, but no real news! Reports from today's testing will be given to us on Tuesday, our next visit.

This is not even funny! The words to the Eagle's song "Hotel California" are ringing in our ears, with only a slight change. "Welcome to the SCCA clinic, where you can check out but you can never leave!"

We will reschedule our appointment with Terry's oncologist for the following week. Maybe we can keep that one! XXX I don't know how to make a sign for crossing our fingers, so the X will have to do :).

One more visit down, hopefully not too many to go, at least over the hill. Hope he is recovering from his cold. That is funny...Hotel California. I'm sure that is exactly how it feels to you. Have a good day being back home. Love, Ellen
