Laurel's Update

Greetings from Nancy (Lo's big sister):

Laurel had a pretty good night's sleep - awake at 7am. They are shipping the chemo "cocktail" in from the manufacturer which will be there by noon and they will start the chemo between 12 & 1, Hawkeye time. Laurel had asked for a strawberry marguerita, but they nixed that request! The infusion will take 30 minutes.

The stem cell transplant will be this Saturday, 10/3. What time you ask? Well, with the Iowa game Saturday and the person in charge of the procedure having Hawkeye season tickets - you can guess the rest! It's evident that these guys (and I imagine the whole state of Iowa) bleed gold and black! What dedicated fans.

Of course, that seems to be OK with Lo. I'm sure she wants to cheer them to victory, too! Then it's on to the bigger victory....for her, and you should see her cheering section, WOW!

GO HAWKEYES! ...................GO LO!
