Long, Busy Day!

Today started bright and early with our wake up alarm going off at 5:30 AM.  Had to be at Christus Spohn Shoreline  by 6:30 for the registration to get new hardware installed at 8:30.  I now come with a Bard Power Port included.  Should make the injections much easier since they won't need to use me as a pin cushion anymore.

Once released from the Same Day Procedure unit, it was time to head on to the Herceptin injection appointment.  Nothing like getting new hardware and trying it out right away!  Just as advertised, it was  quick and easy.

We did see the medical oncologist today too.  Just reviewed the treatment plans and finally got the mammogram results from the hospital.  Go figure, they were negative.

After the injection, it was time to get some much needed lunch (at 1:00 PM).  Since we had another appointment in the area, we decided to go back to the Sirloin Stockade.  Perfect.

Knowing that it was going to be a long day, we had taken the dogs to Brunos again for daycare.  A quick lunch allowed us to pick them up and make our way to the last appointment.

Time for round 2 of the whole brain radiation.  Quick in and out and we were on the way back home.

Whew.  All of us are exhausted.  Time to get rested up for our company (Bethany & James).  Can't wait to see them tomorrow!

Oh, and I forgot to mention, this morning was the first evidence of the hair starting to go.

Time for rest.
