Check-In Day

Today was Check-In day at the Huntsman Cancer Institute.  Everything went according to plan, well sort of.  Michelle arrived at the hospital at 7:30 a.m. to have her porta-cathetar put in.  This is a line that will administer the chemo, blood transfusions, and eventually receive the bone marrow transplant.  Later she checked into what will be her home for the next month. 

Tomorrow begins the day Michelle has been anticipating since she heard her diagnosis of cancer...chemotherapy.  Best of luck to you Shelly.  We all love you and you are in our thoughts and prayers.

You can do anything for 30 seconds! You'll get through this--one day, one step at a time. We are rooting for you and praying for manageable chemo and ATG, and swift engraftment. You go, girl!
