meredith's garden

today was a good day :) i had my port checked and my blood drawn and am already home... yay! they're sending one tube off to get tested for the BRCA gene- that's the gene that causes hereditary breast cancer. that way my sister/mom/girls will know if they're at a higher risk or not. it will take 2-3 weeks to hear back from that. the other tube was to check my white blood cell level- to make sure there's enough of the buggers to fight off infections. chemo kills them, so they'll keep a close eye on them throughout the process.

my amazing friend julie is bringing us dinner tonight, for which i am very thankful. last week she brought us veggie quiche! she's fabulous. and it will allow kj to go with ruben and gil to the hockey game tonight guilt free. that's a huge plus.

that's all i have for today- and i have no appointments until my next chemo on april 8th! yipeee!
