Mexico Independence Day (Pre-Test Day 1)

Waterlogged would be how I described my morning! Two liters of water consumed and a blood draw kicked off the day, followed by a breakfast bar to end the fast. We were then introduced to the the people who have the brains to make this all happen at the Orientation! Head doctors, neurologists, hematologist and their teams presented what is in store for the month. It is a lot of information to take in all at once, but it is clear that we couldn’t be in better hands. We are filled with peace to finally be here and ready to dive in! Hope is a powerful thing! That is what I learned today!

Even though we are both exhausted (not sure why that was so tiring), we ventured out on foot (well, riding in my chariot that Mike pushed) to enjoy dinner with our group to celebrate the Mexican Independence Day…at the Italian restaurant down the street. Delicioso!

Tomorrow is another full day of tests. There is no organ left behind. Thank you for your texts, emails, FB messages and blog comments. Mike and I both love reading all of them and we have been brought to happy tears by your encouragement! We feel surrounded with love!
