November 30th

Typical Monday!!! :(

We headed off the the hospital bright and early this morning hoping to get everything done. Jess had been fasting all night for her test so she was hungry and thirsty by the time we got there. She got all of her scans and then we went to the blood/chemo room to get her picc lines changed and get her blood drawn and read. Things were going well until I got a phone call, the scans somehow got messed up, so we had to run back to get them done again before the dye in her system wore off. Then we had to jam back to get her spinal fluid drawn and have her chemo put in. For some reason they poked and prodded at her forever and they couldn't get any fluid out of her spine, since she was dehydrated. The doctor wasn't going to get the results in time from her scans so they decided to set it all up again for Weds at 11! They are going to draw Shane's blood and run test on him to see if he is going to the the "just in case" donor. He is missing school and there is nothing that I can do about all of this and it is driving me crazy!! I just read this to her and her Dad (and he says it is doing the same to him!) lol. But we did have a couple good things happen today. The insurance approved Shane getting tested and her blood still came up weak, but not bad! So please keep her in your prayers, that the scans come out good and she has the strength to endure all of this!!

Love to all,
Cindi
