So today we had our first appointment at the ICM clinic and it went well, and we didn't have to do much. It was more of an introduction and evaluation. They took 9 tubes of Mark's blood so they could check it and get it ready to use later. Then we filled out paperwork and watched a short video that explained everything. It's really nice to have other people here even though we are being treated for different things it's still nice to have people to talk to. Everyone that is starting the same time as us, and the majority of the people here are being treated for MS. We've heard there are a couple people here being treated for spinal cord injuries that have noticed some sucess but we have not met them yet. We get more excited everyday! Everyone at the clinic was REALLY nice but today was our only time going there, everything else from now on will be done at the hospital. We have heard such good things about the hospital and the staff from everyone. Tommorrow will be our first Physical Therapy appointment and then Wednesday we will have PT and then our first injection. We are getting so excited. We will post more pictures later and let you know how Mark does with his first PT appointment.

They clinic left us fruit baskets in our room which was really nice.
