Dr.
Harris: Bette?
Bette
(startled) Hmm?
Dr.
Harris: I asked if you were ready.
Bette: Oh,
sorry. (pauses) Yes, I am.
Dr.
Harris: Are you comfortable?
Bette: As
comfortable as I can be, I guess.
Dr.
Harris: Alright. We’re going to clean the area with an antiseptic solution.
Bette felt
the texture of latex against her skin as someone took hold of the waistband of
her underwear and lowered one end a bit to expose the injection site. A moment
later, she shivered as something cold and wet was applied to the area.
Dr.
Harris. Ok, Bette. Now I’m going to
administer a local anesthetic to numb the area. You’ll likely feel the pinch of
the needle and then a slight discomfort from the solution as it first enters
the body.
Bette
clenched her hands as she felt the needle enter her body. She winced at the
odd, burning sensation that followed. After a moment though it was gone; In
fact, after a few moments Bette didn’t feel much of anything in that area. Dr.
Harris and her staff spent the next five minutes or so gathering the supplies
needed for what was to come. After waiting a sufficient amount of time for the
anesthetic to work, Dr. Harris instructed one of the students to dim the
overhead lights. A moment later, Bette felt the sudden heat from the large
spotlight that had been positioned behind her.
Dr.
Harris: First we’ll do what I explained in my office. The bone marrow aspiration is the easier of
the two procedures, Bette. We’ll simply
take an empty syringe and insert it into the soft, spongy interior of your hip
bone and collect cells from within. (Pauses) Ready?
Bette
takes a deep breath.
Bette:
Ready.
Bette felt
the slight pressure of hands on her back, steadying her. She closed her eyes
tightly in anticipation. She didn’t feel
the pain of the needle entering her.
What she did notice was a building pressure around her hip. She gasped
at the sudden feeling.
Dr.
Harris: Do you feel the pressure?
Bette:
Ahyeah. I think so. It’sit’s not too bad, though.
Dr.
Harris: That’s good, Bette. (pauses) Just a few more secondsthere. Ok, Bette
the needle aspiration was a success. Now we’re going to do the biopsy. Like the
aspiration, I’m going to insert a biopsy needle into the same area. We’ll move
it around and rotate it to collect a sample of marrow. I need you to lie as
still as you can for this, ok?

tibette my computer just crash on me,so i didnt get the chance to comment on your last chapter. i am so happy that you’re not writing bette they way i.c.wrote her. she took almost all of the thing i like most about her away. her strengh,her playful side and turn her into something pitiful.i hope you dont do this our bette in your story. i like another writer on this board [LASTKID] you and she both have the same writing style. tibette dont worry about people not reading this story because its one of the best written story on this board. they have a neww way of keeping count of the readers now. if i was to read this chapter 2 or even 6 times, it would still only count as 1 time. it seem if you go over at least 200 her story has been read by plenty of people. if bette do or dont have cancer, just please let her talk to tina about it. ooo i forgot to say ‘great chapter.
