Pictures from recovery room and leaving after the biopsy.
My wheel chair driver was speeding and driving crazy, had me laughing :)
I was sedated (completely out) for the procedure with propofol. Woke up starving, had a snack in the recovery area to hold me over. Discovered a bandage in my butt crack (lol), they must have went in sideways with the needle to get access to the tumor on my right side. Had one of my favorites the snapper at Churrasco’s on the way home!! Got home and went to sleep immediately and just woke up thinking it was the morning. Hips are a little sore when I just got up, but not too bad. Also, white blood cell count was a little low and had to get a Neupogen shot this morning.
Met an awesome couple today in the waiting area in Targeted Therapy, she originally had breast cancer in 1992 and in 2005 it came back with a vengeance in her bones and many other locations. She exhausted all standard treatments and was only supposed to live for 2-3 years with her diagnosis. She has been on a trial for 18 weeks in Targeted Therapy on one of the same chemo therapies that I am on, she is bald like me and doesn’t wear hats or wigs :) She could barely walk, but was soooo positive. Her husband said he would catch her with her walker vacuuming the house. Love meeting people like this!!

Going back to bed, lots of work to do tomorrow!!!
