Jeff spent the day with Cora at the hospital. She had a low key day and was mostly easy to please. I was home with Andrew. He was miserable this morning but perked up at the sight of Uncle James this afternoon. This evening, he is a new child. I took him back to Hopkins this afternoon and he got the large bandages off. His incisions look good. They are about the size of a medium nail head. He told me today it feels like someone punched him really hard in the hip. Being a hero isn't easy, he told me.
Last night when we were leaving the hospital I said to Andrew "You know, a hero like you should be taken home in a limo." Silence... "No Mommy, a race car". Andrew decided last night he wants his hero present to be a ride in a real race car. Does anyone know a race car driver?
By the way, who thinks the Grand Prix in Baltimore is a good idea!?! Do you have an idea what it is doing to our drive time to Hopkins?
Next week we will start to see the effects of chemo on Cora. This will also be when she is at most risk of infection. Please continue to pray that her body accepts the bone marrow and fights off infection.
Be CORAgeous!
