Thursday - Day 9

It's been 9 days since the transplant and at least another 21 days left to spend in the hospital. Trish's friend nausea is back today. Just enough to be annoying, but she sounds good. Lots going on at work in Baltimore these days and I have been spending more time at the office than at the hospital. Her Mom and sister just left today.

When Trish and I flew home for our two weeks, we found a Carvel in the mall near my work (which is near the airport). So I am armed today with an insulated bag and will try to bring her back some Carvel tonight. When we were dating and newly married, she would always want to stop at Carvel for a cup of Chocolate and Vanilla ice cream. In later years, I would always ask her if she wanted to stop and she would never be in the mood. But it remains a favorite.

Her hospital room is pretty naked just a few cards up and with 21 days left to go, feel free to send a card and help decorate the room. When Trish was on the other floors she developed a reputation of being the patient who got the most mail. Feel free to help her regain that reputation.

Don't forget the dinner dance coming up on the 28th, sounds like it will be lots of fun. The food should be good too, our former neighbor, Klaus who is the executive chef at the Eden Roc will be supervising the kitchen.
