After very little sleep last night we got up and got ready this morning. Thankfully Super Shuttle arrived on time before dawn and picked her up. At this point, she has passed through security at DWF and is somewhere at the US Airways area awaiting her flight. The first leg of the journey is to Charlotte, North Carolina where she has a layover and plane change before heading on to here destination of Jacksonville, Florida.
Health wise, she seems to be doing okay this morning. Sandi is tired, but we got very little sleep last night. She had a blood transfusion last Friday of two units of blood and one unit of plasma in preparation for this ordeal today. Thankfully, this time around the transfusion did not make her feel bad. It didn't seem to do anything to perk her up either and that is not a good thing. But, at least it didn't give her flu like symptoms and extreme fatigue like it did last time. Hopefully she can hold up today with everything being asked of her.
I have asked her to keep me updated as she goes across the country today so more news here as it becomes available.....
9:55 AM---Sandi texted that she is on the plane.
1 PM---Sandi texted she was on the ground in Charlotte, NC.
2:27 PM--Sandi texted she was on board the plane for Jacksonville, Florida.
3:15 PM---Airplane is in the air according to the airline.
4:25 PM---Airplane has arrived in Jacksonville, Florida according to the airline.
6:10 PM---Sandi calls home from her hotel room and says everything is fine. She is very tired, but, other than that she is doing okay. She says she had lots help every step of the way with carts and wheelchairs and that things went as well as possible.
There are still glitches that have to be resolved, but, she has been told these problems are normal with Wal-mart and Mayo should be able to easily straighten them out tomorrow. One hopes.
Best wishes to both of you.
