Day +2-P.M.

4:00pm-It's a constant changing of the bags-Tacrolimus (immunosuppressive drug), Sodium Chloride, Acyclovir (anti-viral), platelets, red blood cells, etc, etc, etc...
Smells definitely trigger the nausea, but right now it is under control.

Played Wii bowling...until I won.  Then switched to archery...until I won.  Then switched to light sabers and played several games of which I lost every single one.  I highly recommend if you find yourself sequestered for any length of time in one room to bring a Wii.  We've had one for years and hardly played it, in fact we only have one game!  My good friend is offering to bring a few others so we don't look so pathetic playing the same game.  Her daughter said we could borrow them until Steven was well enough to drive and buy his own.

8:00pm-A huge shout out to the Marriott Courtyard in Monrovia.  They have special rates for City of Hope families that include breakfast.  They also offer a shuttle service to and from COH free of charge.  It was a great hotel and I appreciated the convenience and good night sleep.  Maybe next time I'll sleep in the chair....not!

Steven is incredibly tired.  They take his vitals every 4 hours around the clock so he doesn't get a good nights sleep.  His Vitamin D is low and he was given a supplement....well no kidding.  That's what happens when you don't see the sun for any length of time!
