Bone Marrow Biopsy

With the help of my entourage, I got through the bone marrow biopsy on Friday. Having whined enough on the phone to get their attention, although they still would not put me under, they did give me some pretty cool drugs and this time I remember it all sort of but don't really care as much. They limited it to one person with me in the room so my son Scott was with me. I guess people tend to pass out when they watch the biopsy and the doctor really needed to keep his focus on me so the rest of the entourage waited patiently in the waiting room. Scott was a trouper and although it felt like I was squeezing his arm off he hung in there. We just talked about the babies and Scott and the Doc kept reminding me to breath through the pain and then it was over. I think I did a lot better this time...but I think the drugs helped a lot more. After some blood work at the lab (I barely remember that part though I do sort of remember being in the wheel chair) they took me home and planted me on my sofa where I slept the majority of the day. By this morning I am just slightly groggy and have some soreness at the biopsy site, but for the most part I think I am doing really well. Much thanks to my entourage for getting me there and home and feeding me throughout the day and thank you son for helping me get through the biopsy. I love you all.
