Last Day in Costa Rica

Today was our last day in Costa Rica. We woke and ate our typical breakfast of scrambled eggs, pineapple, and some kind of potato's.

Then at 10:30 we had our finally appt. at the ICM clinic for his 4th and last Stem Cell injection. Joey's IV was placed in his foot, because that was the biggest vein. So they had to put a cast over part of his foot and leg to prevent Joey from kicking and slamming his foot down on the IV catheter. After the finally injection they began trying to remove the cast. Finally they decided that they couldn't do it, so off to the hospital emergency room to remove it. Boy, are the hospitals here different. The ICM doctor meet us in the front and we walked right into the back. No filling out paperwork or anything. His cast was off and his IV out and badged in 10 min.

Then back to the hotel. Once we got back we ventured to Burger King for lunch. After lunch Joey had his last session of ABM. For dinner the 3 families remaining and the ABM practitioner headed to Rosti Pollos for dinner. Our farewell dinner. Yeah time to go home.

We leave around 7 in the morning to go to the airport. I fly from Costa Rica to Dallas with 2 other families, then from Dallas to LAX. I get home just intime for bed. WHOO HOO!

Thanks to my friends, Pam and Makenzie, Jennifer, Scott and Gracie, and LIsa, AL and Brock this was a fun trip. I will miss you all so much, but remember we will always have .....................but we have F'N Walmart.......with a Deli.......on the Eastside! (inside joke).

Now we pray the stem cells to some work.

A slide show will be coming soon.
