Its just routine

Appointments. So many of them. Lost days of school, work, regular life. Jen is such a trooper through them all. She is out again today and tomorrow, 3 appointments. She has come such a long way tolerating people touching her. Even going back a couple years ago, everytime the doctors would touch her she would rebel making the appointments difficult. Now she doesn't rebel, usually. She sits in the car looking out the window, usually looking very content for the long ride. She waits in the waiting room, will go through x-rays, ultrasounds, lab draws, poking and prodding,
and as long as I am by her side telling her it is all o.k., she is o.k.
I question why the change, it is huge, sometimes we think she has just given into it all, sometimes I just think it is all she knows, we all get use to routine, no matter what it might be. Well, headed out for our routine ride to the hospital.
