Amy's 'momentary trouble'

It was a long day for Amy. She needed to be down to Madison by 9:30 for blood work, so she left with her mother and her OLDER sister around 8:15. Next, her chemo was scheduled for 10:30, followed by her MRI at 1:00. Between her chemo and MRI, the three of them ate lunch in the hospital cafeteria. I’m not sure how many of you have had an MRI, but Amy’s lasted about an hour and they had to call her back in to redo part of it. At 4:30pm, Amy finally called me to say that they were just then leaving the hospital…she sounded very tired…and no wonder! She spent a full day getting poked, infused, drawn from, magnetized, capsulated, injected & imaged. They got home about 20 minutes after I did and basically turned around and left for Trevor’s softball game while I went to my trustee’s meeting. After Trevor’s game, I met them and went to supper at Culvers (Amy’s mom treated! Thanks mom!). We got home around 9:00pm, this had been a very full day for Amy and it didn’t take long before she went off to bed.

As I have mentioned before, tomorrow is another crucial day in this journey. Tomorrow at 9:30, we will meet with Amy’s oncologist to discuss the results of the MRI. It may be that the images will be apparent enough to clearly define what the spots on Amy’s liver are, or they may not. For me, I am praying that they are clear enough…clear enough to see that there is nothing on the liver at all…clear enough to tell that there is no evidence of tumor re-growth.
