We made it through Day 2 relatively unscathed!


Day 2 is really just hydration to make sure all the chemicals are being efficiently flushed through the body.  We were at the end of two hours and ready to go, when  they had to remove my needle for a port that is implanted in my arm.  I reminded Steve he didn’t do so well when he saw the needle for Amnio, but being by pillar of strength, he watched anyway.  Down he went with his head between his knees and a can of pineapple juice to drink.  Being a sympathetic wife, my blood pressure immediately dropped to 85.  In came the reinforcements, including my oncologist.  We kept trying to explain it was just the needle, but 45 minutes later we were finally released.

Let this be a lesson to any of you who are volunteering to drive:  1) drop me off 2) go to Barney’s, Neiman’s, Saks, or anywhere on Rodeo and 2) only come and get me with the coast is clear and 3) never look at the needle!

The kids are doing well.  Andie having her license is a godsend.  She’s taking Ella to the beach today! I am going wig shopping!!!!!

Much love to you all!!  We couldn’t muddle through this without you
