Big post! Deb, Art, etc

Getting labs

Deb really begin to feel the strong chemo today. Overnight she gained 6 pounds! She spent all day being served by nurse Madeline who is from England. When I dropped Deb off at the front door on this Sunday morning, I went to park the car in the chemo clinic area about 8:15 am .There were already a number of classmates already parked. As quiet as our lives might be on any Sunday morning, hospitals and clinics around the world are full of hurting people. Now that I've been here, I never pass a facility without thinking about all the folks and caregivers inside.

When Deb 'graduated' from the original treatment, she had a ceremony of the Seeds of Hope where she placed a seed in the large stone seed as a memorial of having finished her treatment. Here are the seeds that have been placed since then.

The nurses station keeps a seasonal display for our enjoyment. Since it is Olympic Season, here is the display.

While Deb slept this morning I went to the hospital chapel service and was greatly encouraged. Here is the chapel window.

As I said a few days ago, there is an art exhibit here in the hospital with artwork on display with a legend about the who/what/why the piece was done for. Here is the main info poster. I will post what I liked the most.
