Morning!

Well I feel like yesterday was a mentally and physically tiring day! We got over in Medford about 11 for Jess's spinal. The tech came out to get her and this one actually invited me back there to sit with her. I figured that they would kick me out when the doctor came to do the procedure but they didn't. So I'm the bad person cause I really didn't want to be back there and isn't that horrible? It makes me mad at myself even now. I just hate to see her in pain so I didn't want to be there.... It is easy to sit out in the waiting room isn't it?? But enough about my cowardice. They ended up taking out fluid to look at the cells. That always makes me nervous cause they are checking for cancer cells in the brain... and then they put the chemo in. She said that it went pretty well. I heard her tell them that it hurt once and so he gave her another pain shot (which they hurt a lot) so all in all she said that it was a good spinal and I have to say that I really like the doctor a lot. So we don't have to go back over there until the 23rd, but then it is another spinal and chemo :( Until then she is on her chemo pills and then next week she starts another chemo pill and her steriods. So she still has a long road ahead of her. Please keep her in your prayers. Love, Cindi
