6-24-10

Well yesterday felt sooooo long!! My body is actually stiff and sore so I know that Jess's must be twice as bad. We got over to the hospital for her spinal which was a nightmare even though she had the good doctor. He just couldn't get it to go. So he had to numb her spine in 3 places and try to get the big needle to go. Needless to say she was super sore and exhausted after the procedure. She said that he was very kind and kept talking to her and trying to make it easier but it still hurt a lot! She is hoping that she doesn't have to have a spinal ever again! I'm thinking that it was number 18 :( Then we had to wait for chemo at 2 and that took over 2 hours with the pre-meds, fluids & then the chemo. Some nice friends invited us for dinner afterwards over there but Jess was to exhausted and wow she sure was. After I drove her home and then I got home and did some stuff around the house I felt miserable and so sore. But anyways, we have to be back over there at 2 today so I don't know if I will need to go pick her up this morning. There was no way that she could drive last night so Pat drove her pickup home and I picked him up... Well please keep her in your prayers today. Oh I forgot that she also had to start her 3 chemo pills a day last night too! :( So I will let you all know how it goes and drop me a line if you can and let me know if you guys are reading. Thanks so much! Love, Cindi
