I got my schedule for going to Houston for my 24 month follow up. I guess they're doing a lot more extensive stuff, since they want me there for 3(!) days. Actually 4, but since one of those days is only a blood draw I'm going to tell them they need to put it with one of the other days. I have the full neurological exam on Wednesday, an MRI that night, a bunch of stuff at MD Anderson the next day (including another stem cell apheresis), about a thousand blood draws, and a lovely lumbar puncture to round the trip off on Friday.
I don't want to go.
I hate Houston.
Ben will be with me on Wednesday, but he can't stay the whole time since we're going on a long road trip later on this summer, and all of my sisters either have children (how dare you?! :-)) or have major obligations that week. This is one time when I really (really) wish one of my sisters could be there with me.
(By the way, this is not a subtle hint or guilt trip for any of my sisters since I know that coming out here is simply utterly out of the realm of human possibility, and that if there were any possible way, you would jump on a plane on a moment's notice. I know this. That's why I love you.)
Anyway, that's what I've got to look forward to in a couple of weeks.
Yuck.

Oh Gabrielle, I do wish I could be there. What are the dates? I might as well know so that I can be eating my heart out those days thinking about you... I was thinking about the fact that you were just starting that whole process 2 years ago, right after Rachel's wedding and right when I found out that I was pregnant with Polly. I hope it goes well, and I do wish wish wish I could be there.
Houston, you have a problem. ;p
When is it? maybe I'll guilt Mama into sending me over.
