Don’t look at me in that tone of voice…
Thank you everyone for all your well wishes and while you are all very supportive – not a single damn one of you offered to go in my place….
Not sure what to expect tomorrow…. before any of these “activities” I always get plenty antsy, I can only imagine how much I drive those around me near mad with my fidgeting – for that I apologize. I also get pretty wrapped up in details, for instance I was all stressed out about parking, I know relatively minor, but it loomed large on my mind. So we took a drive by the hospital and scoped it out, finding out where to park, how much etc etc. Silly I suppose but it makes me feel better, taking care of the minutiae that is still withing my realm of control, helps ease the overwhelming feelings of drifting…
So armed with my information gained during today’s reconnaissance, I know exactly where I’m going at VGH. The 2nd largest hospital in the country, after Ottawa…. I had no idea people got sick in Ottawa, I figured they only made people in the rest of the country sick…..
I’m not sure what kind of shape I’ll be in tomorrow. It’s funny, it’s approaching 1am as I write this and I feel so bone weary tired physically but mentally I’m running a triathlon. I’m sure you can relate, most of us have had call to realize sleep was desperately needed and yet the faster we run towards it the further away it gets. I’m not able to sleep tomorrow during the IVIG particularly because it’s the first session, they need to ensure I am closely monitored and evaluated. If all goes well in session one then the following sessions should follow suit….
I will make every effort to post something tomorrow night… but if I don’t… well – I guess, stay tuned until I can. I’m taking a real glass is half full, Doris Day, walking on sunshine, it’s a small world, happy happy joy joy, puppy dog tails, warm apple pie, summer meadows, raindrops on roses, whiskers on kittens, bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens, girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes, snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes point of view here…
Have a Great Day.
