Fro-yo, anyone?

Well, it's been quite the weekend. I enjoyed being in New York, but I was ready to be back home. Imogen has been doing really, really well.  We went to the park yesterday to enjoy the sunshine, and let me tell you, that girl will ride a swing for HOURS if you let her.


Aaron, unfortunately, still has that rash. Well, it's not really a rash. Tam took him to the dermatologist, and they actually biopsied it to figure it out. Creams and oatmeal baths aren't doing the trick. It oved from his left eye to his right eye, and now is on his ear and neck, too. Pray for him if you think about it.  We had an AWFUL night of sleep on Saturday because of all this. Thankfully, last night was much better.

A BIG THANK YOU to Carrie Martin and her crew! They raced last weekend, and rode for 32 miles or some ridiculousness. I get tired if I drive for 32 miles, people.  That's impressive.  And thank you to all who partnered with the team to sponsor their miles!

Aaaaaand, if you like frozen yogurt in November like I do, check out this sweet flyer that our friend Sarah made.  She organized a benefit for Immy at Five Spot in Grayson and Snellville tomorrow!
  They're giving 25% of all proceeds from 5-8pm tomorrow at both locations, so I'll see you there. It all fits together to be a pretty huge week.  

Here's the schedule, so far:

Monday
-Maybe taking Aaron back in to dermatologist
-Hearing results of Aaron's biopsy
-Imm has to take iodine drops for her nuclear injection, for the MIBG scan on Wednesday. They are disgusting, and she hates them. Trust me, you do, too.

Tuesday
-Injection. Imm gets the injection 24 hrs before her scan, and her port will be accessed. We're doing all of this outpatient, so pray for no complications or whoopsies while we're home.
-Iodine drops. Really, they're really gross.

Wednesday
-MIBG scan.  We'll get a reading from the results within two days. This scan can pinpoint tumors and tell where it is (or isn't) in the body. It's the one Imogen got a while back to see if the cancer was anywhere else in the body.
-Iodine drops. --shudder--

Thursday
-The calm before the storm.
-Iodine drops. They taste like sour, spicy poops.

Friday
-MRI, and hopefully the MRI results that afternoon.
-iodine drops (last time!); they don't deserve to be capitalized.

Let's do this!
