Getting Ready for Reno...

Next Monday I will be leaving for Reno, Nevada. My mom is going with me while my dad and brother stay home. We will be there for about 3-4 weeks while I receive treatments. This is my third time to go to the clinic there. While I'm there I'll get at least one IV every day along with lots of other treatments. This time I have a PICC line and I am SO thankful for it! I have tiny veins that like to collapse so usually they have to stick me 3 or 4 times. They even just gave up a couple times and I had to skip the IV for that day. So the PICC line will be so much easier. It may be really hard to keep clean and dry but it's a lot better than having to be stuck 3 times every day!!
This picture is from when I was at the clinic in December. This is part of the IV room.
