I'm writing this with one eye closed. I just returned from the hospital where I arrived at 6am this morning to have my "port" put in. They were running a bit behind, so the procedure started about an hour late....as is typical, I froze to death...but I did have my emergency socks (thanks to Nancy) in my purse, so I saved my feet this time. The nurse tried to put my IV actually in my arm........hurt worse than any of these recent procedures......finally moved on to the hand which was perfect......duh.
Encountered more very nice people this morning. The best thing about this entire ordeal so far has been the medical personnel. Truly they've been some of the sweetest people I've ever met!
And, as is typical when you haven't been able to eat for many hours, the turkey sandwich on a croissant roll following the procedure was heavenly......
So, I'll be here napping for a few then head off to Dallas for my evening procedure: Bi-laterial MRI...........I'm told that I'll be assuming the "Superman" position for this one...........can you get the visual???ha!
Chemo orientation on Friday and wig shopping on Saturday........the fun keeps coming!
Thank heavens for friends and family.........couldn't possibly get through this by myself!
