Trish drives herself to the hospital.....


well, almost....Everyone wanted Trish to try cousin Tony's bike before we got in the car to head to the hospital, so she complied.

We left for the hospital at about 11am. They have been doing things slowly and we probably could have come in later, but we're getting things done. They let us go to the cafeteria for lunch and Trish had a Subway salad. I tried their new brisket sandwhich -- for the fast-food brisket enthusiast, I would stick to Quizno's version of the sandwhich.

The BMT fellow is examining Trish now and the Busulfan chemo starts at about 5:00p.m. She'll be receiving chemo to kill off her marrow and stem cells, so that she can receive the donor cells. That should be on the 10th of July.

I have posted Trish's new room phone number and hospital address in the left column. It is best to call after 11 in the morning, to insure you call after the doctors' rounds.

UPDATE - 7:55pm July 4th
The first dose of Busulfan is in. So far, so good.
