We are here at LCC with all of our wonderful friends. Thanks for the post, Kat- we love you too. We were threatened with country music today... NOOOOooooo... is what Jimmy and I were thinking when they asked if we would like to listen to country- seems that TODAY is country music day... we almost asked to change our appointment!! HAHA But, Melissa sang us a good country song and we were ok with that!! Great song Melissa!!
Jimmy's Erbitux is complete and now they hung the next round. We will probably be here another 5 hours at least. This room is such a big happy place- (I know, weird depiction), but you see people of ALL ages talking and laughing... you know that this is the only place they see one another yet it seems that they have been friends FOREVER! And to watch the guests sitting with the patient - the caring, the love, the worry- - - - - THE COMMITMENT!! It brings me to tears- - - it is an amazing world behind these doors here at LCC!
Jimmy is asleep- and has been since the wonderful liquid Benedryl through his port. The gentleman beside me is here for his 57th treatment. He has been battling this beast called cancer for 9 years now!! He is probably around 60 years old. He is an LCC favorite!! :)
The beeping of the IVs here is CRAZY as there are 11 patients here right now- BUT thank God we are here and not in the hospital where they have a TOUGH TIME getting to the beeping, it seems. So, thank you ladies for being on top of that beeping!!! We had quite enough of it over the past months...haha
Oh, I forgot to mention that Jimmy hit the snack area before we even got him hooked up to the chemo!! We didn't do a McDonald's stop today- he wanted a Blueberry Bagel with Cream Cheese from Dunkin Donuts... that was breakfast!! :)
Well, I want to post how Jimmy proposed, but I have to make sure he will be ok with that first- I want everyone to share in it!!!
Soon there will be pictures in an album of Jimmy in his "not-so-good" times. I think we all need to see these as well as the happy - nice ones.
Love and hugs to all...
