Finally the day I have been waiting for is arriving!! The last tests at IU Med have been scheduled for this Friday. Registration is at 7:30 a.m. At 8:00 I will have a pulmonary function test. My 9:40 appointment is with Dr.Lacerda, a Gastroenterologist/Hepatologist. At 11:00 I see Dr. Krause, the Transplant Pyschologist. And the 1:30 appointment is with the Transplant Surgeon and Coordinator. Blood work will be done after this last appointment. This is a lot of testing and activity in one day, to be sure. But the good news is that I am still in Ball and will be going to Indy from here and then returning to Ball that day. So I will have lots of help getting ready that morning and then can rest when I get back!
Please pray that I will have the stamina I need to make it through this busy day. I am ready for these tests to be over so I can get on the waiting list!
Cody and I appreciate all the calls and texts. Please know that if something big happens you will know! These days I have really tried to benefit from the down time and care that I am getting here in Oncology. My breathing is limited so sometimes I am unable to talk. Plus I am taking advantage of pain meds while I am here, so my conversation skills may not be at their best! I am not ignoring you. I am just trying to save my energy for the tests on Friday. Remember...no news is good news. Remember we will update the blog to keep you posted.
Thank you again for your thoughts and prayers. What would I do without all of you?
Love, Lenette
