040901 - Millie went to Kaiser in Walnut Creek for blood draw to evaluate
040902 - starting treatment to recover from 11th relapse of cancer.
040904 -  ..
040905 - Carol was Millie's nurse.  She was very attentive for Millie today,
040906 - and said Millie has been a strong inspiration for the Kaiser Infusion
040907 - Clinic in Martinez.
040909 -  ..
040910 - Blood draw was difficult.  Took about an hour to get the 6 vials.  Jo
040911 - Ann assisted with ideas and support positioning Millie to optimize
040912 - blood flow.  Carol had to remove and replace the Huber needle.  She
040913 - also flushed the port several times with saline.  Carol eventually got
040914 - enough blood using syrenges to suction blood through the port.  She
040915 - feels Millie may be a bit dehydrated.  Millie normally drinks a lot of
040916 - water, so she has never had a blood flow problem in the past.
040917 -
040918 -            [On 100720 0900 next blood draw was routine, and easy; took
040919 -            only about 10 minutes. ref SDS 30 RE9R
040921 -  ..
040922 - When this ordeal was finally over, Carol hugged Millie for nearly a
040923 - minute, and said again through tears that she admires Millie's courage
040924 - and dignity, and that Millie is always so cheery, and enthusiasitic,
040925 - and seems to look great no matter what, like the ordeal today.
040927 -  ..
040928 - Millie thanked Carol for getting a difficult job done today, and not
040929 - giving up even though for some reason getting enough blood for the
040930 - tests took much longer than normal.  Mil promised to drink more water
040931 - before the next lab, and to do some pushups or something to get the
040932 - blood to flow better.

040938 - Carol and Jo Ann laughed, and said good-by.
