Mar 20 - Surgery

We got up dark and early this morning to come down to Children's Hospital surgery center. Jessie is getting a port placed for easy IV access and the oncology team is doing a bone marrow check at the same time when she's under. I am in the waiting room now while she's in the procedure. Mike got the other two off to school and is headed down with breakfast.
Jessie did get a little freaked out when the doctor mentioned a breathing tube. "I didn't have that last time!". I told her she would never know because she'd be asleep. The doctor said she might have a sore throat for a day or two. She is my hero. She is so brave.
Jess is losing weight. She finds it amusing that BC (before cancer) she had to work so hard to lose it and now she feels like she stuffed herself the other day and it is still coming off. At least there are some perks!
