Day 102 September 15, 2009

Tuesday- well on the way home we got the call that the potassium is low and we would need to get blood tests today. SO I tired to go to Sloan here in Commack but you have to be 18 to go there. Weird. I called a couple labs but could not get an appointment. Our only choice was to go to the city. So off we go. Hoped for a short visit. It was relatively short and we had a surprise. The Yankees were there. We are not big baseball or Yankee fans but it was cool to see them. There were three there- Joba, Pettitte and one other guy that I am trying to figure out what the signature says. I told you were are not yankee fans. To be honest, we were more impressed with the bodyguard, he was 6'7!

We hurried home to go to the school soccer game. It was so touching to see Cody out on the field with the players. When he did they hands in the circle before the game and usually shout T-Birds, they said CB! We saw the new practice shirts with CB on the back. Cody watched the whole game and it was hot. At the end of the game, we were standing to leave, and the players did their hand shake with the opponents and they all run to our side and all give a high five to Cody. OK that was enough to bring me to tears. It was really touching. I hope the team knows how much they mean to us! Coach Carcone is an amazing man with a heart of gold.

We hope to get back in time to go to Thursday's home game. It is good for Cody. He is trying to feel good again and do normal things. He is getting there for sure.
