First Day

Morning everyone,
Sorry, I didn't write yesterday, but we all hit the physically exhausted wall. Natalia was incredible yesterday. She walked right in got onto the table they put her mask on and locked it to the table. Sophia gave her Patches the Cat AKA Kitty Canoli to hold while it was going on and then she held still for 15 minutes while the machine went all around her. Amazing for a 6 year old. We then went up to the main UCSF campus and got her chemo meds. She took those just before going to sleep last night 8:30. And so far at 5:30am she is still asleep. They also are having her take antinausea meds 2 times a day.

Of course, she is probably still asleep because we had her walk a ton yesterday afternoon. We came back from getting her meds, fed her lunch then made her take a nap. After that, Family House is right next to Golden Gate Park, we walked to the Japanese Gardens, all around them and then through the Botanical Gardens. She prefered the Botanical because there were turtles in the pond. We are trying to get as much good food into as we can, good thing she likes fruit and veg. As well as, keep her as physically fit as possible. We head home today...yeah!

Love to you all,
Roni
