WOW! What a day it was!! First, let me tell you that Rebecca did awesome! We were there for five hours which included a liter of saline, a bag with a steroid and anti-nausea meds, a bag with Benadryl and anti-nausea meds, a bag of the "C" , a bag of the "V", and another liter of saline. She did great, tolerated everything and ate every vegan snack she took with her. Dr. Amin made rounds and was amazed at her energy level although we both think the steroids helped! It is true what Jennifer mentioned earlier, if you want to get a perspective on what is truly important - visit an infusion room for a few hours. Those folks are happy to be there, to be alive! And there is no negative allowed - you can tell from their faces. We really can learn from the brave folks the true meaning of living. I am going to make a conscious effort to stop complaining about insignificant things and celebrate the glory of living! I am probably not going to post again until we are finished, we have two more days at CMC, but if this is what it takes to get through this, then this is what we do! Thank you all for your well wishes and prayers, we feel them each and every one! Please keep them coming and God bless each of you.

Jen, Rebecca, & Jan,
ReplyDeleteI wanted to let you know I'm here praying for you and will have my small group girls pass you and your family out to their prayer chains too. I pray God gives you each the strength needed to continue this path. I also ask that you are able to feel his warmth even in the coldest of times. Lots of love coming from Atlanta!!
