Infusion #4–check it off!

Checked in today at 5:50 AM with Caribou coffee in hand for daratumumab infusion 4.  Took my Benadryl, then instant nap.  Chelsea, our favorite nurse, brought a yacht-sized comfy chair for David today, so he got a nice nap as well.  Even though I got bumped back to the 1000 ml infusion bag based on a slight reaction last week, things moved along fairly quickly, and I was out the door by 2:15 PM.  The good news–no adverse reaction during the infusion, so I’m back to the 500 ml infusion next week.

We drove to Minneapolis last night to meet our friends Julie and Fram Virjee, who were in town–such a fun evening and so great to be with friends.  We stood in line at Matt’s Bar and Grill for a famous Juicy Lucy burger, which essentially consists of two burgers surrounding delicious melted lava-like cheese.  Our waiter warned us–you can’t bite into the burger immediately due to the hot cheese, hence the bar’s slogan: “Fear the Cheese.”

The Matt’s website photo looks delicious (you should go take a look)–my own photo pales in comparison, but the burger was divine.  And check out the fries.
