HI J and Mel,
I hate to think of doing the infusions for years and all the pokes required for that! UGH!

As for my a slower infusion rate.....it takes over 5 hrs now for each infusion. I get almost a liter of medication....seems like it takes forever the way it is. :( I think I just have crappy veins. Are there vitamins that help build stronger veins??

We don't think the fundraiser today went very well. We stayed till 1:30 this afternoon and there wasn't many people buying things...sad for the family. Thanks Mel for prayer for her.

Some nurses and technicians are better than others. I have blood drawn every month and I certainly notice the difference .

HI Herb M,
I totally agree with that statement! I hate going to the infusion center because it takes at least 2 sticks to get the needle in for my infusion! The nurse that comes to my home is very good......not sure what happened last week with my vein blowing. It sure wasn't a fun time!
