Our First Appointment

Today was Allie's first appointment at University of Michigan's cancer Center. When you walk off the elevator the first thing you notice is people in wheel chairs. This is not where I thought my baby would ever be. It is a kind place. Doctors come out to greet you. The resident and the doctor were so caring to Allie. Allie asked, "What if you find something on my head? I don't want a missing patch of hair." The nurse replied; "Either you won't be here or you will have a patch of hair missing.". It was truthful and I respected her for not sugar-coating it. So I feel more in control because I now know we are on a path to her wellness.
