And we're off!!

We've been at home so long now.. it's been wonderful. I took a mini trip to Montreal to visit my surrodaughter as I don't know when I will have the opportunity again. It was wonderful, I love that city. And if I were french I would move there in a flash. So full of culture.. character.

So back to reality today..

His counts are finally ready. I am not just waiting for a phone call to confirm a bed. There are no beds available so we are hoping on some discharges. What gets me is this ward in primarly oncology patients. But they also have a handful of anorexics that take up beds for months. I'm sorry, but these kids who have a life threatening illness, who chose NOT to have this have to wait for those who have a mental illness who choose to harm themselves. There is a mental ward at the hospital... so that is where they should be. err... don't even get me started.

So this is it. Final round. One step closer to normalcy for all of us. We are anxious to get to Hawaii so I'm hoping all goes well.

There is lots of sadness at the hospital.. 3 little ones I know who are not doing well at all. So it's going to be a hard stay.
