Jude had a very long day today. They got to the hospital at about 8am. He was very sleepy this morning and slept before his radiation and afterward. He did not eat enything until the afternoon since he is not supposed to eat for 8 hours or so prior to radiation. They receive a schedule for each day as to what appointments he will have. He had to go to triage for measurements also and then had physical therapy this afternoon. He was so tired and barely was able to get through it all. We were done at 3:30pm.
He goes again at 8:30 tomorrow morning. But tomorrow is only supposed to go until 1:30 or so. We are going to rent a car for the day and take a little drive around town. We are hoping to go have some Memphis BBQ also! Yummy!
Me, Jay and Jeni in front of a "camera chili" in the...what else...Chilis Care Center. This is where Jude goes for his radiation treatments every day. They sedate him and then do the treatment for about 20 minutes. When he wakes up, Jeni and Jay are called from the waiting room to be with him. 
One of the painted walls in the hospital. The entire hospital is painted with various scenes. It is all so colorful!!!! There is artwork displayed all over the hospital too that patients have done. In the waiting area for the Physical Therapy there is a table where kids were painting and coloring. One little girl was painting on canvas that she gave to one of the physicians to put up in the hospital. So wonderful!!! These pictures can not possible represent all the beauty of the hospital. I hope to get to more of the floors to take more pictures.
Here is the cafeteria where everyone eats. When I say everyone....that's exactly what I mean. The nurses, doctors and staff all eat in this same cafeteria. It is an added bonus for the kids to see their doctors eating right along side of them. They have BBQ, soup, salads, sandwiches, Indian food, Sushi, Gelato, Pizza....what an assortment! I ate sushi today...even though I did not think I would eat ANY sushi while I was here. Jeni had fried green tomatoes!
The gorgeous statues in the lobby where we enter off the shuttle from the Ronald McDonald House.
One of the paintings above the lobby desk where we enter. There are 5 different scenes next to each other. This is one!!! They are all beautiful!
