Day -3 to Transplant

It was another relatively quick day at the hospital today.  In at 7:30ish and out around 1:00 o'clock.  Just the two chemo drugs today and Lynn continues to be on 24-hour fluids so the big bag of saline and the pump are still with her tonight. 
As for how she's feeling, it appears that the chemo is starting to take effect as Lynn was having some tummy troubles this afternoon.  Gravol seems to have helped settle things down and she's been napping most of the afternoon.  Tomorrow is the last day of the Fludarabine and Busulfan, but she also starts the ATG so we'll see how that goes.
The doctor confirmed that she'll start spending the night at the hospital tomorrow and then it all depends on how she feels as to whether or not she'll get to come home some nights afterwards.
Susan, David and Nancy stopped by for a visit today.  Susan had her second booster shot and for the most part was feeling okay.  Not sure if it's the shots or the altitude here in Calgary that were making her a bit under the weather. 
Have a great evening!
