Saturday and Sunday service consists of a blood draw followed by 5 hours of infused fluids. Yup, that's 5 hours to pump one liter of saline into my system. Sometimes I get a treat and they add a little bag of magnesium. It's a tiny bag, so we're calling it the mini-mag-bag.
Sometime during the long infusion process, the staff PA comes to see me. Poke, prod, query. Wonderful time.
At the end of the whole thing, my body sorta feels like rolled up doggie dookie, so I come home and go to bed so I can sleep 12 hours until my next scheduled abuse.
Did I mention my immune system is mostly gone? It'll be back next week. Oh, and I just put Ed on an airplane for Canada about an hour ago. He'll be gone all this week.
