What a Day!!!!!
We,ll we managed to have quite a day. Got to the hospital a 9:oo for blood work. There were like thirty people ahead of us so we went for a coffee at the cafeteria. Went back at 10:30 and there were still 20 people ahead of us, so we went upstairs to have her heart scan. Got in early and they drew the blood for it and told her to wait half an hour for the scan. Went back downstairs to see if we were close to her # for the blood work and they had just passed us. Had to wait for only about 10 mins but while we were in there the heart scan lady came in and told us that she had done her test wrong so we had to go back up so they could do it again and they had such a hard timefinding a vein. They finally did it in her hand through an iv that we asked if we could leave it in for when we got the chemo. After many calls back and forth we were told yes. Finally finished up there around 1;OO and made our way back down to outpatients to get the much anticipated iv chemo. To make a long story short by the time it was mixed and ordered it was 4:15. Our poor Jen was exhausted and sleeping beside me. Just as she was in a deep sleep they of course said it was ready. The anti nausea drug took longer to give to her than the actual chemo did and we are finally back home at 5:30. Hoping things go a little more smoothly tomorrow but we are more than grateful that we have restarted this so we are not complaining. Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers, The Mom and tired daughter

Hey Jen! I'm sorry you had such a rough day but glad things are finally back on track. You've been super strong so far. I have emailed your hotmail account as it was taking me a while to figure out how to use this. Keep smiling girl!

I guess you'll have to remember to bring a blanket next time so you can nap in the waiting area better!

Hey Jen,
I am sorry that things are so rough! It'll get better. There are a whole bunch of people praying for you here ('cause PG is laterally close to Edmonton..?) and you are in my thoughts!
