After a quick check by Dr. K, head down to apheresis. That's their name for sucking the blood out of one arm and putting it back in through the other. Why you ask? To remove some of the white blood cells to make sure everything is OKEY-DOKEY before first round of vaccines. Isn't the 9TS glad his wife shares? Is there no privacy in a the man's life?
12:15 p.m. Back up to the 3rd floor to the Clinical Research Unit for more lab work, leaving wife and camera behind. Hooray!
Bad news, no one told the 9TS that after the vaccines are injected, there is a six hour wait before being released. Bummer.
Wife gets tired and appears with camera: Another bummer . . . worse than no one to play fetch with.
labwork:
Infusion:
Vaccine shots:
It seems even she-with-camera-welded-to-right-eyeball didn't want to watch the seven needles. Some wife she turned out to be.
Dinner:
Hospital Cafeteria food leaves much to be desired. Spaghetti and meatballs. Sort of.
Schedule: Report back to CRU every hour for vitals.
Departure: 8:15 p.m. YAY!!
Arrival: Home 10:45 p.m.
Snore . . . snore . . . snore . . . snore . . . snore . . . snore . . . snore . . . woof

He's a trooper. And a very handsome dog!
From Kelli who has been apparently banned by Blogger from posting herself:
"I just have one question:
Why is he wearing his wedding ring on his thumb?
{eg}"
I swear his ears weren't that long when we met him!
Glad to hear you're back home safe and sound.
You are hysterical Jeanne! I think your sense of humor must give your dh the strength and encouragement to persevere! That dog is just too funny! Glad you're home & that things are going well!
