Friday Update

No complaints today...It was a good Friday indeed. Traffic was extremely light this morning on the way into the hospital. We showed up in radiology (famous for their long waits) and got right in and done in minutes. The annoyingly chatty nurse a hte PICC and Port blood station was out today and we flew through that wait fast as well. Dr. Griffiths stopped by and we had all of our questions answered before the biopsy in a very casual and leisurely manner and she agreed to do the biopsy early today, so we would finish faster. It was just a great day all around.

Tonight my brother and his family come in for a visit. After a few more days of tests we'll fly back to Florida too! I'll make some reservations this weekend, but looks like we will fly home either Thursday late or Friday.

Some more good news. The only doctors appointment scheduled for Trish while she is home is a dental appointment - needed for the transplant eval by Cigna. Since they will put a Hickmann in for the transplant, they will remove her PICC line next Thursday after her last dose of IV antibiotic Wednesday night. And here's only one pill the docs want her to take while she is home. This is all good news!

Hopefully next week will go as well as today and we'll see a lot of you very soon.
