California Adventure - Day Two

OK, so we found out we are a bunch of old ladies that really can't keep up. We have the greatest of intentions, but, we lost steam. Around 6:00, we were done, we were finished, we were exhausted.

We went to California Adventure today. I broke my sunglasses yesterday, so the very first order of business for me was to get me some new ones. I got me some very awesome and cool black sunglasses with pink Mickey's on them. They are awesome, freaking cool!!



We then went over and got our fastpasses for Soaring Over California. If you have never been on this ride, and you get the opportunity, you must GO!!! Two things to remember; ask for ROW ONE and SNIFF!!!! On row one, you don't have feet dangling in front of you, you're way up high and it's AWESOME!!!

Then we went over to the Tower of Terror. My sister Cheryl and my sister-in-law Wendy have never been on these rides, so this was new to them. We screamed and laughed and giggled on this ride. It's very cool to go on these rides with people for the first time.





I have to say, we are having a great time and so much fun. I was kind of worried about this trip, not sure how all these different personalities, shoved in one room together would do - but, we've done great and we are having a ball!!

    This is reminding me of the "girl" trips my grandma would take us on once a year. My mom & her sister..her daughter (my cousin/sister) me & grandma. One year we went to Hawaii...Grandma would always call it an early night after dinner & then tell me & my cousin..."now u girls don't stay out late"!!

CoCo's Journey - Ah, Shit!!!

I am exhausted.  Physically.  Mentally.  Is there anything else??  Because I'm sure that is exhausted, too. I went to the doctor today.  I knew it was going to be a lot of information.  I had made a list.  I had my notebook.  I printed out all of the information from my emergency room visit on Saturday to take with me.  Blood tests.  CT Scan.  Urine test.  Plus, I brought my CT scan from March, because I noticed on it that I have a small umbilical hernia.  I was ready.  And I knew what I needed to fight for. I also came armed with gifts.  I love this doctor and his medical assistant so much.  I took them a gift of tortilla chips and homemade salsa.  And I wrote a love note on the bag.  That is how much I appreciate him.  They both loved it.  It even made Hayley get a little weepy, cuz she was having a bad day. I gave him all of my documents, and he went through the blood tests and such fr...

CoCo's Journey - Sleeping with Jeff AND Camilla

  Well, the day has come and gone.  I got my new and fancy attachment coming out of my face.  It was a horrible experience.  I thought I was going to go absolutely insane and take out the people putting it in me.  But, let's talk about it real quick. I got an NJ tube.  I thought I was going to be getting an NG tube.  What is an NJ tube?  It's a tube for feeding that is placed through the nose and snaked down past the stomach and into the jejunal.  The jejunal is in the small intestine.  The nasojejunal tube is more complex and has a few more risks than the nasogastric tube.  But, apparently, it's the best choice for me.   So let's talk about the actual procedure.  I knew from the beginning, when they squirted lidocaine in my two nostrils to kind of deaden it that it was going to be COMPLETELY horrible!!!  And then needed me to sniff it down to kind of deaden my throat, to make the tube a little more comfortable g...

CoCo's Journey - Up Your Nose with a Rubber Hose

Sun wasn't even up when I headed to the hospital Today, I had my first albumin infusion.  I have it at the Cancer Center.  It lasts about four hours.  They get an IV started and slowly infuse the albumin.  Today, I learned a lot: Don't take your own snacks.  They have great snacks and beverages.  And you don't have to haul all that stuff. Four hours, sitting in a little curtained room, is really not bad.  I snoozed, I snacked, I watched TV, I played on my phone. Make sure you take your power pack. If they ask you if you want a heated blanket, the answer is always YES.  I had three by the time I left.  I told the adorable CNA fella that I planned to just look like a pile of blankets by the time I was ready to leave. In October, we wear Halloween fare The side effects are headaches and achy muscles.  I'm the lucky one that gets both.  I'm doing ok tonight.  I don't get headaches, I'm used to achy muscles.  I limit my intake ...
