Re: First infusion Tuesday--Judy

[Guest guest]

Dear Judy,

Only look at messages once a day. You know prayers

are with you. I know nothing of the movie you rented

but I try to look at the good. Good thoughts, prayers

and all of us sending those prayers of comfort, you

know you aren't alone.

Love and prayers always, Sheri

Hi Judy,

My first infusion is next Thursday. I am probably as nervous and scared as

you were. Hope everything went well today.

Did they tell you to bring the little goodie bag or was this your own doing?

I have been thinking of doing something similar to this myself but didn't

want to do something that is not allowed. I even thought about buying one of

those little portable DVD players to amuse myself and my kids, of course,

suggest to bring a Nintendo game boy!

Did they have any trouble with the IV line? Or are you one of those VERY

lucky people who have veins like telephone poles? I know it is going to be a

fight and a half to try to get the sucker in and worry about a possible

central line or porta cath be necessary. I am worried that if you need one

of those, you might not get the treatment. I really need this too as I have

fallen victim to the Enbrel shortage.

Hope you are having a restful night. Will talk to you soon.

Gentle, tender, angel hugs,

Debs in FL
