We made it through a full day!!

Well, today was a really long day, but thanks to Jeana and Sara Keck we had a really nice meal waiting for us when we got back to the hotel!! :o)

We started out about 9:30 this morning, where Brian had blood work done, and then to the Skills Center for a last minute lesson on what to expect with chemo, and then to the Infusion Lab. Brian did well with his treatment today, he was just a little tired because they gave him Benadryl to make sure he didn't have any reaction to the chemo. Apparently sometimes your body will say, "hey, this isn't supposed to come into my veins", and people sometimes have reactions to it, so the Benadryl helps to make sure that doesn't happen. Brian also had a radiation treatment today too. We got back to the hotel about 5:30, so we're both pretty tuckered out.

I had to step out for a minute today, all this "stuff" got a little bit overwhelming to me for some reason. I sat down out in the hall and began to cry. I'm not sure why, but I guess I had to just let go for a minute. I didn't want Brian to see me upset. I'm better now. Sometimes you just need a little cry.

I had the pleasure of seeing an old friend, of all places, here at the hospital. She was there for a check up. We talked for quite a while and it was great catching up with her. Marge, it was great to see you and Carey!!

I think I'm going to sleep pretty well tonight! But don't forget, tonight's the season finale of the Bachelor!!
