2nd Treatment

June 18th, 2008

2nd stem cell treatment went good so far.  It was a little frustrating.  They put the anastesia in her IV but I did not know that was what they were doing.  I thought they were flushing the IV.  Directly after that they took her away and we were worried because it was different than last time.   But she came out much sooner and all is good.   She has a much larger IV fluid bag this time.  This is good, she needs the fluids.   I wanted more last time but no way to communicate this I went to the market today with Tonya and Harley, have to go every other day because there is only enough space for two days of food.   The yogurt is good we have all had it and no problem. The grocery market has live fish,frogs, turtle and various shellfish. also has all kinds of organ meats; heart, liver, and stuff i cant identify. We buy normal (American) food.  I do feel all better now too. Thank goodness. The nurses are great they look for such a long time before the IV and call in other nurses but get it first time. Other parents say the same.  I cant wait till we pull in the driveway.  What a world away that is ( literally) that will be the end of the trip.   But for now we will continue our adventure.
