Ethan and I had another quiet day. He is in a frenzy to get all of his work turned in. He worked for a few hours on it this morning.

We are prepared for a busy week. Tomorrow and Thursday are his nephrology appointments and blood draws. Tuesday is the stent removal. Wednesday is the biopsy, EKG and Echo. Out of the entire lineup, it’s the echo he hates the most. It is painful for him. The last couple of times his echo lady has been the same. She takes forever and has to repeat several shots. She also doesn’t seem very empathetic about how painful some of the shots she does are for Ethan. We both hope he gets someone different.

We are both planning on not being able to go home on Saturday. It is a coping mechanism. But we are both just worried it won’t happen and we will be so devastated.

Our bright side is that we both were able to sleep in today. We didn’t have to be anywhere. We didn’t have to go to the hospital. That is a good thing.
