Day Twenty Three: Toldya It Was Corn

After a long day of work and a short evening of dinner, baths and bedtime, I unfortunately missed talking to Krissy over Skype. I'm getting this post in just before I turn in for bed, hoping we can talk more tomorrow. It's hard not seeing and talking to her everyday like usual! I love you babe, keep kicking ass. Now back to you Lori!

Last night was a bit rough, we had a bar down the street playing loud music until wee hours of the night and also a group of people in the halls by our room talking and laughing until somewhere around 11:00. After a rough night of sleep for both of us we were awakened by one of the nurses as Krissy had a ct scan first thing this morning. I am asking everyone to please pray for Krissy that she has positive results, nothing but lots of healing prayer and positive thoughts!! After her scan we went down for breakfast where we sat with our new friends Joselyn and Jewels, Joselyn is really having a hard time trying to find her inner strength and faith to continue her fight. Krissy is so amazing, after all she has gone through she is there for Joselyn, answering her questions and giving her inspiration to continue to fight. I still am not sure why this has happened to Krissy and why she is having to go through all of this, however her strength and faith in God is just speaking volumes when it comes to her fight and her will to help other people. I have always said she may be small but she is Mighty!! She is such an inspiration to me and many people her at Oasis.

After breakfast we decided to just relax in our room while we waited for Krissy's treatments to begin. She received the Immuno therapy where they have donors here at Oasis donate white blood cells, if you all remember Frankie and Cesa talking about it, this is where Krissy smells like creamed corn. It was funny, instantly she started to smell like it. They gave her a break in between her next treatments so we decided to have lunch. Today was International day and todays theme was Hawaiian so they had cute little center pieces made of fruit, we enjoyed pineapple chicken and rice which was very delicious. We had lunch with Melana, her son Trafon and Joslyn.

It was time to continue Krissy's treatment so back to the room we went where she received vitamin k and vitamin c. Today was not as nice outside it was cooler, cloudy and windy so we decided to stay inside. Once Krissy was done with the vitamin c we decided to go to dinner before she received her kemdalin and second doses of vitamin k and c for the day. The vitamin c does not agree with Krissy to well so she didn't eat much. Krissy was kind enough to go down anyway and I was able to eat, we did meet 2 more ladies, Renee and Rhonda from LA. Renee actually did 2 weeks of alternative treatments in Santa Barbara and is receiving additional treatment here at Oasis. Back up to our room we went for Krissy to continue her treatment, TV, reading, emailing and just relaxing.

That is all I have for today so until tomorrow.
