Day of Surprises

Surprise #1
With a fresh 2L of blood in him, Graham woke up perky, talkative, playful and hungry! We hung out, and laughed, and joked, and got some things done that we had been putting off. 

Surprise #2
As we were chattin' it up - in walks Graham's Lil' (but bigger) Bro Luke.  It was AWESOME to see him.  He stayed and we all caught up over a couple of hours.  There are no words that can describe how much this meant to Graham (and me too).


Surprise #3
Relishing in the fact that Luke came to see us, we heard yet another knock on the door.  And in walks Rosenblatt.  Y'all - doctors don't do this.  Especially doctors on Rosenblatt's caliber.  We all know that Graham is one of his favorite patients, but for him to "drive out to the sticks" as he said, is unbelievable.  It was awkward that I had to tell the nurse to leave...but after that, it was just BS'ing like it were pre-rejection days. Sports, golf, jokes, man things that I started daydreaming through, and also serious talk.  There is mad amounts of respect that each of these men have for each other.  And Graham has been really wanting to talk to him about "the next place."  And even though Rosenblatt said roughly the same thing that another doctor had (yet with more class I might add) it was easier coming from him.  Graham has been seeing him since he was a teenager - some of the old CF stories came out and they were funny - and Graham literally trusts him with his life.  Rosenblatt was not happy to hear of how he has been treated and even gave a big shout out to all the Baylor nurses.  He will be researching other places and as soon as we say so, he'll take us somewhere else. 

Surprise #4
RIGHT...IT KEEPS GETTING BETTER!  Our Jordy came by to see us.  It was the best way to end a perfect day.
