Out of ICU

It took forever to get out of there, there just seemed to be always one more thing. They had to take blood and couldn’t get enough from the line in her hand despite much digging and infliction of pain. They finally just opened up her chemo port and had it done in a snap. Of course they had already packed her up for transport so the morphine pump was temporarily disconnected. But Nancy is a bad ass and toughed it out.
Thanks also to Laura Lessard for spending time with us today and taking me for lunch.
Life goes on for everyone else, I’m at Macy’s tennis lesson now. Payton has his season opening baseball game tonight. She is probably ready to post something herself but I accidentally left with her iPad. Like I said – trying to keep things normal.
