Remicade Appointment for June!!!

Matthew's Remicade infusion for June went really well.  It was the first time I could not be there.  It kind of made me very nervous.  I felt like I should be there but I couldn't get off of work.  So Ryan and Braden brought him.  It was Braden's first chance to come and see what Matthew has to go through every 8 weeks.  Lucky for me I work 7 floors below the Pediatric Infusion Therapy Center.  My friends Chuck and Katie covered for me so I could sneak up and check on him. My first trip up was just in time to see the "Good Guy" Arik finish up his IV.  I poked my head around the corner and said "Yeah we got the good guy" and Matthew and Arik both laughed.  I ask Arik how he did and he said Awesome as usual.  I hung out for just a few minute and then had to head back to work for a little while.  Ryan, Braden and Matthew played on the computers and Ipods and watched movies and had snacks.  Nothing too exciting happened.  I stopped back up before I had to go catch my bus, to see how they were doing.  Ryan and Braden both complained because it was boring! Matthew was just hanging out in the chair watching a movie.  I left them to be bored a little longer, it usually takes about 3 hours.  I think Matthew is pretty used to how boring it is, but he knows it makes him feel better so it is all worth it!
