Doctors, Waiting and Doctors

My day started at 8:30 bright and early, off to Overlook we went for the blood test round 2, this time armed with snacks and sugary drinks with no passing out this time! We found out the white blood cell count was on the rise but my platelets were low, so I got a platelet transfusion.  From there, they told us okay now you have to go to Robert Wood Johnson Hospital in New Brunswick.  They did their own blood tests and come to find they rose more and they had to put they're version of a port in to do the stem cell collection! Needless to say by this point it was almost 4 and boy was i cranky, tired and hungry! But I didn't have a say in the matter and in this version of a port went.  I once again was NOT put out and felt it all.  Tomorrow Dad and I get to go back for a few hours for the Stem Cell Collection so I am less than thrilled because this weekend up at SHU was my sorority's sisterhood retreat which I am missing.  So after crying all day I am now beyond exhausted and going to sleep.
Love
Sarah
