My oh my it’s been a busy past few weeks.
Pat and I have really been getting all of our wedding details figured out. We are getting invitations back like crazy! We have over 100 confirmed guests coming as of now. We’ll see where we stand in another 2 weeks. Last week we met with our Harpist and selected our ceremony music. We also picked up our rings. They are gorgeous if I do say so myself! :)
Today I had my second Infusion. I brought with me the pictures from my colonoscopy so that this (new) Doctor could take a look at them. When she looked at them her response was “Good Lord Girl!”. It’s scary hearing that kind of reactions from an experienced dr. that specializes in Crohn’s. All went well though. I almost passed out when she was taking the IV out when all was said and done. No headache yet, just a little foggy from all the meds and the Benadryl.
Our next few weeks are packed to the gills. This coming weekend Pat is having a “LAN Party” with some of his friends. It will be great to open the house up and have company. Plus as a double bonus for me, Liz is coming and we are working on wedding things! The following weekend is PJ’s wedding(one of Pats good friends). The following weekend is Fourth of July. Pat and I will be heading to Stone Harbor. He has never been and I am excited to get away for an extended weekend!

My quick update.:Things went just about as good as they could have on Monday. Mom and I got there around 11:45. My transfusion was scheduled for 12. There was one other person there. They have a total of 4 seats so I had my pick of where I wanted to sit. I picked a quiet corner so if I had an emotional breakdown it wouldn’t be so obvious! They got my IV in no problem and took some blood. Then I started feeling light headed and ended up passing out. I was out for a while and it took me a long time to feel semi-normal again. They pumped me with IV fluids and started my meds about a half hour later. I relaxed and watched TLC and took a short nap. I was very sleepy Monday and ended up with a pretty long lasting headache(like over 48hours!) but that is a very normal side effect of the med. Yesterday I was feeling “in a fog” but today my headache finally went away and I am feeling good.
Thank you so much for all the prayers and support! Next Infusion is in 2 weeks! Keep the prayers coming that all would continue to go well. God is totally taking care of me and for that I am forever grateful!
