Colin’s habit of throwing us for a loop has continued unabated. 0 With surgery set for Wednesday, Monday was a big prep day for Colin, but he demonstrated yet again that our careful planning can be rendered irrelevant by the result of a single blood culture. 0 Oh, wait. That’s just snow. Target House Elephants: Normally, this is a fountain, and through the holidays the pachyderms were adorned with white lights. 0 Well, today was Colin’s No Mo’ Chemo party, but for some reason, the chemo didn’t put on its listening ears. 0 The last chemo precaution sign. This indicates the time of the administration and how long we need to properly dispose of diapers and so forth (48 hours after the drug has finished being administered).
