Anne went to St. Mary's to hang around until the doctor came by to see him. Meanwhile, since getting released is such an extended process, I stayed home and set up for the the jam.
Fortunately, Justus was released today!
Unfortunately, only Walter showed up for music. :(
We had some fun and he showed me how to play taps on the harmonica. Then I put things away and called Anne to see if she needed any help. They were hearly finished checking out (3:20pm) and she wanted show times. Pulling up Fandango I found we had nearly an hour before the next showing.
When she and Justus arrived, Jim and Bob had just Skyped in. So, I sat Justus down in front of the computer while Anne and I packed a couple of drinks and some candy for the movie. They kept it short, knowing that we needed to head out and off we went to see "Money Never Sleeps", the sequel to Wall Street w/ Michael Douglas. Boy, was it good. Justus liked it so much that he commented later it had taken his mind completely off things! Can't get a better recommendation than that.
After the movie, we returned back to the house where Anne and I gave Justus his birthday presents. Mostly, though, everyone was just glad that he didn't have to spend his b-day in the hospital. Especially with his family out of town, also.
Tomorrow morning Anne checks into the hospital for her 24-hour stay. They'll be giving her the new chemo treatment while making sure that she's well hydrated. Then on Tuesday they'll take her for the radiation treatment. Afterwards, I'll pick her up and take her home where she'll probably want to catch up on her sleep. As Justus informed us, it's so noisy all the time that it's hard to get any shut-eye!
Love to you,
Don and Anne
