Yellow and blue make green - not just ziplock!

Ziplock used to bank on the idea that if the general public buys their baggies and can see the seal change from blue and yellow to green, they know IT'S SEALED! 

Well, today we got a lesson in a similar color-merge phenomena. Blue Kool-Aid (aka blue chemo) +  tinkle (aka: your pee) = green tinkle (green pee). The nurse told Mom, "Oh yea, did we tell you yesterday that this blue chemo may turn your pee green?" 

I realize, that's a little too-much-information, but just when you think you are getting in a routine and can anticipate what's coming next, your pee changes color!

On a super-good note, Mom's bone marrow test came back clear of cancer cells. Whoo-hoo! One more treatment of blue kool-aid on Wednesday and round 3 is over. We aren't sure what these side effects will be... only time will tell.
