Martha made it to St. Vincent this morning, but they had to postpone her scan to Monday because she hadn't been medicated for it (she's allergic to the contrast dye). SO her appointment with Dr. Krisht will be delayed, too, because he's not available next week. She seemed in good spirits, but it's too bad for the delays, especially for the visit with Dr. Krisht. Fortunately the scan will be very early Monday so maybe it won't disrupt her day too much.

Amanda is having more trouble today and she has been very tired, so she is writing a note to her doctor describing how the medications aren't working as they should. (One has started keeping her from sleeping well, for example.) She is continuing all of the non-drug therapies too, though they take a lot of time every day. She is better than she was a few weeks ago, but she often gets discouraged at the slow pace of her recovery.
