So the morning started later than usual. Mom got a 15 minute stem cell drip and then a 45 minute protein drip. I had been standing by, writing "need to know"'s, for any new patient planning on coming, on my netbook that I will add to the blog. I wasn't able to get into the room that has the Internet cable to say goodnight to my littlest one on Skype but, it's okay... I called and hubby had me on speakerphone with her. Hearing her is better than not seeing her. It melts my heart to hear her say "Hi, Momma".
We understand that Dr. Moon is going to the States through 1/10/10 to continue working on opening a lab in Houston and hopefully a clinic in possibly the Bahamas or Mexico. That may take quite a while though to come to fruition. I know they've been trying to open a clinic closer to the States for more than a year.
It's about 1:20 pm now. Everyone else went back to the hotel about 45 minutes ago. I'm going to wait until Joe finishes his treatment and take a taxi back to the hotel with him. Hopefully, Erica will get back to the hotel soon safe, sound and unbroken. I understand that the hospital is not the best place in the world. Your bed is basically a gurney with a sheet over it. The privacy curtain is just around your "bed" so not any real space for anyone to even visit you. You need to bring your own soap, towels, etc.
So, here I sit in a room next to Joe writing this and listening to Minnie Driver on my netbook. Yes, she sings and her voice is incredibly beautiful. Take a listen to her album called Seastories. It has become my South Korean soundtrack.
Here are some snow shots from today...
