Thursday!

I am currently having my 3rd lot of treatment. (two days of i.v.i.g. worth $20,00.00 aud.).
It is given, based on results and with permission, from the Red Cross.
Going by the economic climate currently and my SLOW progress I don’t know if I will get approval to have more.
To be honest it can make the strongest person broken and not feel worthy.
Stupid and uncharacteristic of me, but that is human.

I will describe a day of treatment;
Arrive in the day unit for the appointment at 9.
Sit in a big chair all day, so find one first.
Find a vein in either arm as the treatment is intravenous. Needles, you NEVER get used to them.
Have I.V.I.G. pumped through your system constantly.
Sit with all sorts of people while they receive their respective treatments.
Heaps of people getting some cancer fighting drugs and blood transfusions etc.
Finish about 16.

An old friend who used to play the bass in my earlier band works there, so occasionally the silence is broken by us laughing like little girls.
