An Update and a Slushee Story

Charlotte had her first LP under conscious sedation in the Oncology clinic last week (Sept. 13th) (she's gone under general anesthesia for each one before now).  Sean says it went well, and they both were giggling that dad had four eyes once the meds started.  The chemo pills are going down well, and thus far we haven't seen any horrid side effects.  As promised, her appetite has started to drop.
 
From Charlotte's talking, it sounds like her taste buds are being affected.  When I was in Bismarck, ND, she called my cell and asked for Miss Angie's phone number (our neighbor and Charly's former pre-school teacher).  I rattled off the number and went back to work.  Later, I asked Sean why she wanted to call Angie.  He told me that Charly called her and asked her for a homemade slushee. Whoops.
