Long day

We knew Wednesday was going to be a long day.  A 10:30am appointment at the HemOnc clinic followed by an appointment at the Infusion Center down the hall for a couple IV chemos were already on the schedule.  Then there were signs of low platelets starting a few days before.  Bruising, mouth sores, cracked and bleeding lips.  We were pretty sure a transfusion would be added to the schedule, and we were right.  Platelets were really low, and they did a transfusion that was almost twice as much as usual.

During all this we didn't get bored.  We watched lots of movies, talked to a doctor and lots of nurses, ate snacks, piled and spilled lots of movies around, got port accessed and then deaccessed, got Daddy to deliver pizza and breadsticks, fought taking a couple oral meds, finally took a nap after taking Benadryl, got a kitty band aide, picked a couple toys, and finally got home just after 8pm.  Not all in that order.
