some better news

this morning we drove to emory u for karen's first treatment with full knowledge that we probably would not get to do the treatment. i was very worried that the blood thinner may set things way back. after talking to the PA for doctor voloschin she said we just need to wait a week to start the treatment. karen needed to be on the thinner and let it stabilize for 5 days or so. so, not knowing the exact date, either next monday or tuesday karen will have her first treatment.
i have now given karen 2 lovanox shots...i did not like this at all. i will do what i have to do and get it done, but it really hurts me to have to hurt karen.
karen has 2 therapy appointments this week, one thursday and one friday.

"Much better" indeed. This sounds encouraging.
