Well, here I am

I am in the hospital. My room is very big, very bright and has a great view of the River and the 59th Street Bridge. They are not going to be able to put in the central line today. They said they will do it tomorrow. In the meantime, if they want to start the chemo before the line goes in, they can do it IV. So far, all I'm feeling is anxious to move on. Nicole from Patient Services really hooked us up. It turned out that she had spoken to the general manager of the Helmsley Medical Tower and they did have a room reserved for us. So, this Shabbat and next Shabbat are taken care of. So far today, I had an EKG, bloods drawn, meds to prevent liver problems and mouth wash to prevent mouth sores. I'm not allowed anything by mouth after midnight because they're planning on putting in the central line in the morning.
