Dialysis was fine yesterday - lovely spending time with D. They decided to leave my stitches until Thursday to make sure I didn't bleed again. It is feeling much better now and is buzzing very nicely. They will try using it next week. I have also managed to arrange physio for next week after a lot of hassle. This is to sort out my winging scapula!
I have a special thank you to 2 people who have cooked us meals this week. It has been wonderful!
Today the nurse is coming to flush my pick line and I am going to the breast clinic to discuss lymphoedema and exercises to reduce the risk (this is a swelling of the arm following mastectomy due to removal of the lymph glands) . Its all go at the moment!
I continue to feel that this blog is very self-indulgent when so many people have so much to deal with. I have heard today of a family, known to us, in Australia who are likely to loose all their possessions in the flooding. At least they are all safe. We are praying for them and especially for their children. However I do so value your thoughts and prayers on my journey so I will continue.
Anne - be assured you are NOT being self-indulgant. Anything but, so glad you are going to continue. We all want to know what is going on for you so we can pray and stand with you. So sorry for your friends in Aus. but glad they are safe.
ReplyDeleteOh Anne, you are not self indulgent at all. If you were we would not be following you. As Sylvia says it helps us all to know how we can pray for and support you.
