Getting Ready

Don will bring his new hat too, because for awhile his head may be bare.

It is quiet at our house. We are wrapping a few gifts and packing for the hospital. There is so much stuff to take! There is clothing - they encourage real clothes. Sami has a blow-up bed, and bedding. We both have laptops, Kindles, and iPods. Don is bringing his electric guitar (with headphones). Sami is bringing her uke. We are counting on there being some times when Don is up to doing something besides (well, you know the stuff one does when they are undergoing high-dose chemotherapy). At least we’ll be ready. For now, we are enjoying this quiet time at home. It will be the last for a while. Before dinner, we practiced our music a little; Sami on her uke, Don on his Taylor. Later this evening we'll treat ourselves to one more bottle of champagne and a movie.
