Prep work and new dates

Things are continuing forward with the donor process. The donor center made contact with the individual and everything is still on track. All of the dates did move back a week to accommodate someone's schedule (not sure if its the person, or medical staff or what), but either way the current likely date for being admitted is Sunday April 18th. Between now and then, it's a fair number of medical appointments.
 
This week already she's had a normal checkup with her primary Oncologist, and then a dental appointment over at Hackensack. They apparently need to check to see if you have any loose teeth... I didn't really understand that one, but I'm sure there is some logical reason. With her primary Oncologist, her numbers were looking pretty good, so no other appointments scheduled with him for the remainder of the week. It looks like she should have a pretty light chemo schedule over the next three weeks, so that should really help her build some strength back up. Hopefully, when she's admitted she'll be feeling pretty good and back to her normal weight. The stronger, the better.
 
We had our first "physical" donor drive last week. A good friend and former co-worker, Andrew, was kind enough to have something over at his office @ Tremor Media. It was pretty cool. I brought a couple guys with me and he had another 20+ people from his office. We ordered some pizzas and had a good time. The lady from the donor organization was about 45 mins late, so that put some unnecessary stress into it (and we lost a few people who had to go back to work), but all in all, it was a huge success. Many thanks to the peeps over @tremor_media.
 
The blog updates will probably be pretty quiet (maybe once a week), right up until the few days before she's admitted, then we'll pick back up again with pretty regular update. Thanks everyone for your support.
 
If you haven't done so yet, please do register to be a donor!
