I'm learning to be prepared for the unexpected! one of the nurses got irritated with me for not having a back up driver when he had to stay for an IV and I was having to give up some of my notary business and rearrange my schedule. I wasn't complaining, just trying to get things taken care of. I wanted to say...hey, this cancer stuff might be a daily routine for you but it's not for me. I'm still learning.

I did go get him a small trash can, water and towels the other day on our way to treatment as he was nauseated. He didn't end up needing them but at least I have some supplies in the car now.

thanks ladies...you are all jewels smile
