Wednesday

We made it! We left again at 7:00 eastern time and arrived early afternoon. Today was not as good as the previous days. Still very doable to me, but my head hurt more and I just didn't feel as well. We didn't stop much at all in hopes of getting to our room before the shot wore off. It is beautiful out here, though. It would be fun to drive out here with the family and do some sightseeing. I would much rather do that then visit doctors and hospitals!!

Kyle is out now walking around and figuring out where things are. Two of our appointments tomorrow are at a different campus and he is trying to figure out how to use the shuttle bus so that he doesn't have to fight the morning commuter traffic to get me there. I think Friday's appointments are there, too, and the first is at 7:00 a.m. However, the hospital is very close and that is where I will spend the most time, so that should work out OK. I have been spending most of the time that we have been here just laying down.

We are staying at the Hackerman-Patz Pavilion in a suite. It has a small sitting room with a love seat and a recliner. There is a small table that we can eat at and a kitchenette with a microwave, refrigerator and a few cupboards. The bedroom is in the back and there is a nice sized bathroom. There is a really nice family room and kitchen on each floor, and the kitchen has all of the utensils and stove, oven, mixer, blender and toaster for our use. Very nice. I think Kyle may go get a few groceries tomorrow afternoon so that we can eat simple meals right here. This facility also has apartments that we could rent that have their own kitchens but we felt that the smaller option was perfect for us.

We are so thankful for your prayers! We are opening a few cards a day just to spread it out and have encouragement each day. We will probably save more of them to open in the hospital since that is the time I will probably not like as much. Of course, once they are all read, we will start reading through them again. Thank you again for such encouragement!
