First Bone Marrow Test

Sitting in Transplant clinic at the minute. It's going to be a long day.
We were up at 6am so Brett could have some breakfast. 
He had until 7 am to eat and drink and then he's starved for theatre this afternoon.

The little clinic is very cosy. 
Just patients who are post transplant and one parent/carer per child.
It's nice because you know everyone here and it's great watching the other kids getting stronger just as Brett is.

So this afternoon Brett has his first bone marrow test to see how everything is going.
I should be nervous but I'm not. 
gave up worrying over tests some time ago. Worrying is a waste of time.

It is what it is - is my philosophy.
If you worry for results and all is fine you've worried for nothing. What a waste of energy. And if the results aren't too good, well, worry then.

I just hope Brett's not too far down the theatre list. It takes him ages to wake up after a general anaesthetic.
I don't want to be driving home at rush hour.
