My Sweet Sister...

-So it is finally here! Ash is scheduled to get my stem cells tomorrow afternoon! I am so so excited for her! This last few days has been really hard for her. the toughest part of this journey for sure. I'm praying desperately that everything takes. The nurses said that her numbers will bottom out by the end of tomorrow and that my stem cells should begin replicating over the course of the next 30 to 45 days. Her nurses joked that she is going to start acting like me...I had to tell them not to tell her that, she may tell them that she doesn't want my stem cells! All joking aside, we have waited for this day for six long months, and so so thankful that it is finally here! My mom and I have opted for a sleepover here at the hospital, and so we are both going to stay the night with my sis! I've been here for an hour and a half,and my mom just keeps me laughing. She insisted on having a dance off earlier to entertain Ash...only, I then had to explain to her what a dance off actually was.
Mom: "No no Amber we will both just dance at the same time!"
Amber: "Mom, that is not a dance off, that is a dance partner! This is how it works, you do a lame move, and then I do some that are way better...and I win."
Mom: "Well then watch out so I can get my hizzle on."
Needless to say, it lasted all of about five minutes. I think my mom and I were way more into it than my sis actually was. We were just beginning to choreograph a joint number, when she told us to stop. Oh well, still fun.
Funny Point Number 2: My mom had to drag in this recliner to sleep in, and when she moves the whole thing basically closes on her. I don't know that she finds it as comical as I do, but I'm sure she is laughing on the inside.:)
-The 4Th was fun! I didn't have any plans at all, but my friend Mollie and I ended up going to dinner on the lake,Mai Tai's and then watching fireworks at Mozart's over the water! BeAuTiFuL! We had a good time for sure! And I might have fallen in love with our waiter a little bit.
-I don't have much else at this point. I'm going to try and keep everyone posted with details tomorrow! Thank you so much for all the prayers, it's keeping our family going! Love you all,
xoxo a
