Today we got Dave’s meds from the Specialty Pharmacy. When you have highly controlled substances like Thalidomide, it can’t be carried or dispensed by a regular pharmacy. Dave has to do an interview each time a prescription is filled.
He put on some street clothes and we decided to high tail it an hour to Elk Grove to look a the new house! I have only seen pictures of the progress. Its almost finished, all the tile and most of the appliances are in (sans the refrigerator!). The painters were finishing up all the painting and the backyard was graded and cleaned up.
From there we headed back to Marysville for another radiation treatment. Dave is holding up very well. Its an hour+ drive each way.
Oh and yes, today, is our 27th Wedding Anniversary. It was not something we really wanted to put a lot of our attention on. We quietly acknowledge it and went about our day. Not much more we could do. It has never been a big deal to celebrate these kind of milestones like they are for others, but it was a bit poignant thinking about it now. Sort of a mushy look at one another and then moving right along…
Moving right along meant me getting ready to leave Dave and go back to Maryland after Hudson arrives on Saturday. I had moved my flight to Sunday so that Dave would have coverage and I could “hat” Hudson on what needed to be taken care of.
