No, I wasn't in a knife fight
It's late on Wednesday, my bed time. I just wanted to post quickly about my port surgery. It was yesterday morning and it went well. My friend Jill accompanied me to my appointment. They gave me pain killers and sedatives, I drifted in and out of sleep for the hour that it took them to place it. Jill drove me home and I did my best to rest for the evening.
This morning I went to Owen's school to see him recieve the citizenship award, so cute! He was so excited and proud of himself! He melts my heart with his sweet kindness!
Next I went to work, I can now say that was a bad idea...ouch!i had to cancel a couple of my last appointments because I was worried about the pain I was feeling. The adjustments I have to make with work are so hard. I didn't spend years building relationships through work to turn people away so this is a tuff one for me.
looks like i was in a knife fight. The port is a box under my skin right above the bottom incision. So here I am at home sitting, healing and prepping for tomorrow. First day of Chemo. After 7 weeks of testing and planning it is time to start kicking Cancer's a**. The beginning of the end, finally!

I hope the person you got into a knife fight with looks worse than you do! I hope you kicked his/her *ss!!!! Seeing the picture of Owen melts my heart too! He has and always will have a special place in my heart. I am so proud of him for getting a citizenship award! WHOO HOO!! Go Owen! I know you are one proud Momma! If you ever need anyone to come sit with you for any procedures, call me. I would be there in a heart beat. I am off work after June 14th so I am free if you need me! We could check out all the hot Drs. together!! Don't tell Lee or Bob I said that though. It will be our little secret! LOL Proud of you and amazed at your never ending strength. My new word for you is NEGU! OK, that doesn't really look like it is suppose to. It stands for Never Ever Give Up!
ReplyDeleteSue, you are a tough cookie, and an amazing person. I can't believe I saw you right after that and you were just a trooper. I'm glad you canceled your other appointment because you really need to make sure you are taking care of yourself!
ReplyDeleteLove that you are doing this blog. I hope you are feeling better, or as good as you can possibly feel after the chemo sessions. See you soon.
