Well this has been QUITE a week... I had finally got my chemo certifications last week, and we just had two new kids diagnosed this week, so the practical application of my training has already kicked in. One of the two has a pretty good chance of recovery, but we have a 12-yr old that was diagnosed with ovarian cancer and they are only giving her a 50% chance. There is a reason I didn't go into Oncology nursing... It turns out that I am pretty good with it though, despite my mild panic attack with my first chemo administration on Tuesday. People are always asking how I do pediatric nursing, and I always wonder what else that I could possibly love doing more than this...but there are those days that make your heart hurt, literally.
And on a less depressing note...MAIA COMES ON MONDAY. We have been eagerly awaiting the arrival of our kitty for over EIGHT MONTHS now, and she will finally be arriving Monday afternoon...I have missed her SO MUCH! I also have 10 days off after that, so it is going to be AMAZING!
I also just bought tickets for us to go see 3 DOORS DOWN at Bayfest in July...I LOVE THEM!!! I was worried that being out on this little island we would miss out on the concerts we love going to, but they are coming to us! YAY!
Adam has found a new hobby here...free diving and spear fishing, and has been going almost everyday after work. It will be nice to come home to fresh fish for dinner once he gets good at it :). Me...I am going to stick with the snorkeling, and SCUBA once we get there.
