Day -9


Today is K's first day of BMT. I am out in the waiting room while she's getting her first TBI. They wouldn't let me in. After that, she gets a new Hickman Central Line, which surprisingly she's looking forward to. Today is Day -9 because Day 0 is the day she gets the stem cells. I can say that she's in great spirits and happy to finally be moving forward with her treatment.

K says TBI was no big deal, she didn't feel a thing. 15 minutes of buzzing was the only annoyance. Now she waits in full patient regalia for the hickman.

So, she's checked in now. It's not bad at all. Everyone's very nice and she'll get lots of attention; it's very nearly one to one here. Below is the view from her window.
