Just got a call that we will start up in Boston on Monday. Ceil's scheduled for surgery at high noon and we are still waiting to hear how long we'll be up there as the first few days she's got to be monitored. How long will be based on how long the shunt can be turned off.
We also will take the ride up tomorrow for her pre-opp appointments. This is all good news and we're looking forward to taking part of this clinical trial. With anything like this you can imagine that there is nervousness about the unknown, but we're doing what needs to be done to get Ceil better.
She had her blood transfusion yesterday and seems to have gotten a little more energy from this.
Couple of items -
