did I envision Edie's appointment with her oncologist would begin with
That wasn't exactly how it happened, nor were those her exact words (she does have a better bed side manner than that), but that is pretty much all I remember.
So I ran home, packed the few things Edie thinks she'll need to get through the next 24 hours, and I'm about to head back out on my bike (we drove separate cars to the oncologists office, and I don't want to leave one there over night) to take here the things she needs.
The oncologist was optimistic she will only need to be there 24 hours.
I sure hope she's right. This just isn't any fun anymore!
Your creatinine is up to 4, and we need to admit you to the hospital immediately, to pump you full of IV fluids and then begin treatment with Velcade. Oh and your hemoglobin was down to 9.8.
