Sorry it's been so long since the last post. it's been an exciting few days.
I arrived on Sunday afternoon for a little more R and R with Carol. We went straight to the BMT clinic from the airport to find out that Carol 's lab reports were so good that they didn't need to give her anything.
Jaime took us to the apartment to show me around before he left to go home and get ready for his business trip to Miami. Carol and I both took a short nap, then off we went to the craft store for more fun supplies.
Monday morning we got to the clinic at 7:30 and they just took her vitals and she didn't need any blood work. At 8:00 we saw Dr.Thomblyn and she was very happy , she said that all Carol's lab work looked great and cancelled her chest x-ray. Dr. Thomblyn also said we didn't need to come back till Wed.
Yay! two days off!
Monday night Carol flushed her ports herself, the first time since the nurse came to the apartment to show her and Jaime how to do it. Then we did art projects and listened to 70's music till almost 10:00 Due to the secret nature of the projects, and to keep recipients from seeing the secret ahead of time pictures will not be posted.
Today we slept till 9:00, what a luxury. Then we had a nice relaxing brunch before going to yoga class. After the class, we went home for a little lunch. Since it was so hot out we decided to go the mall for our walk. So we got a little exercise and a couple of cute tee shirts too!
Then back to the apartment to meet Daniel. Once Daniel arrived I went to the market for stuff to make dinner, while Carol took a little nap.
Carol flushed her ports again, this time with more confidence and efficiency that last night.
The three of us just finished a big dinner of Scallops, Bok-choy, and rice with more veggies.
Time to enjoy a cup of tea, some ginger snaps, and each others company.
It's been fun and inspiring to be here with Carol once again. and so good to see her growing stronger by the day.
Thank you for reading this blog, and for all of the wonderful encouraging comments. Keep them coming, they mean so much.
Love, Sherry

Great news. And good food too. Keep up the good work. When we get back from Kauai, we'll cross the alley and come to visit. Going to Lumahai beach today to watch the cliff divers. I did it last year, but don't have the confidence to try it again. We'll just chill and get some sun.

ReplyDeleteWhat great news - it just keeps coming and coming. We are so happy you are progressing and I bet you can't wait to get home. Sounds like Daniel is becoming quite the chef. Caren and Amy have been here for a long weekend. Caren brought her 45 lb golden doodle puppy, Charley (girl). Look for fun pics on your email. Much love, arlene and paul
