I'm leaving on a jet plane, I don't know when I'll be back again

Last night I said goodbye to all my friends on Oahu: we went to wahoos and took over the restaurant with 20 people. Good food, good company, good stories. My friend Auika from Kauai is on Oahu so I got to see her for the first time in years. It was sad to say bye to her after finally being able to hang out. Leaving wahoos last night really made me see the good people Cassidy and I had surrounded ourselves with. We will miss them all so much. I hope we can make some good friends in Texas.

I leave tonight with my mom at 10:54 pm to San fransisco then straight to Houston. Cassidy doesn't leave until Monday night; this will be the first time since getting cancer that I will be away from him. It makes me sad but I am much stronger now and I just hope I can get through my bone marrow biopsy without freaking out too much... He has always been there for me to squeeze his hand. My appointment was moved from Tuesday morning to Monday morning at 7:30 am. I will be there until around 5 or 6 pm. Ugh. I have labs, blood drawings and biopies to look forward to :( hopefully they test me for my HLA type on monday too; I would like to find out soon if Chelsea and travis are matches with me. Time will tell.

I am finishing up packing...there isn't that much to do. My mom gets in at 12:30 today to help finish up packing and get some boxes shipped to Houston. We have a lot of stuff; 4 suitcases, 4 duffle bags, 4 bags for carryon, 1 guitar, 4 boxes to ship plus an amp we probably will have to ship...and a load of goodwill stuff to take. We still have some things to sell that Cassidy can hopefully make some money on. He is shipping his car over (for a hefty price of $1547), which will be nice to have in Texas. He is working out a transfer with Apple so he will have a job when he gets there :)



Okay, off to get ready for my last day on the island...I hope to get some beach time in today. I will update when I am in Texas! Love and miss you all,

  1. Hi Savanah,

    Another chapter to your cancer adventure is about to start. You'll do great in Houston. I've had friends that had their cancer protocols done at MD Anderson with great results. More good vibes being sent your way from the east coast. Only wish i could have been at the party at Wahoos (purely selfish reasons though!). Kick butt in Houston and safe travels.
