today's the day.

Ryan got her first dose of stem cells today (thousands of them, the sisters said) in her hand and i got really emotional. I'm not entirely sure why - it was just like all of this - years of wondering if stem cell research could be useful for injuries like hers, months of supporting Ryan in making her decision to pursue this treatment, subsequent months of anticipating this trip and freaking out about it, a week of hanging around Delhi and pretending to be on vacation - all of it came down to this first injection.

Here we go.....
