Monday- A day of waiting and emotion. We were up early and got called to go to the procedure room at 10:30. Well, a few emergencies came up and Cody did not go in until 1:30. It was not good to sit there that long and just wait. We saw a lot of the outside world today and it is scary. We know we are surrounded by cancer when we are there but it is hard. After the procedure they send you to xray to make sure the new line is in place. We did that and I was talking with a women about our sons and we both started to cry. There is support there but it is not always the kind I am looking for. When I heard her story, I realize how lucky we are with Cody. When I talked to another family waiting for their daughter's transplant, it was odd saying it already happened to us. Seems like forever. They were asking us the questions. It is a whole other world out there. I have said that before but it is. You do not know and cannot understand until you are there and in it. Cody and I are stronger because of it, for sure. It changes you forever.
We got home around 6pm and all went well other than we are tired. We had to wait for the nurse to come, well, I did. You went straight to bed. So far, so good. "Knock on wood" as Cody says for just about everything! Seems to be working.
Thanks again for our pet sitters!! Love you all!
