HI EVERYONE,
FIRST A BIG YEAH!!!!!!!!!--I GOT THE CATHETER OUT --MINE WOULD NOT COME OUT ON IT'S OWN SO THE DOCTOR HAD TO NUMB IT UP AND MAKE A SMALL INCISION AND THEN HE WAS ABLE TO GET IT OUT. THAT IS A SMALL STEP BACK TO NORMALCY FOR ME. I AM DOING OKAY --I GO TO SEE MY REGULAR ONCOLOGIST TOMORROW --I AM STILL TAKING THE ANZMET NAUSEA PILLS FIRST THING IN THE MORNING AND THEY DO HELP I CAN EAT--SO THATS ONE GOOD THING.I AM STILL WEAK --HOWEVER I DID HAVE TO WALK ALOT YESTERDAY TO SEE THE DOC TO GET THE CATHETER OUT WE PARKED IN THE WRONG PLACE SO THAT GOT ME A LITTLE EXERCISE BUT I AM TIERD TODAY. THEY SAY I WILL PROBABLY NOT BE 75 TO 100 PERCENT FOR MAYBE 2 MORE MONTHS TO COME --SO FOR NOW I WILL JUST HANG IN THERE AND YOU'RE RIGHT DON -- I BELIEVE THE NURSES.

Hi Susan,
What wonderful news to find when I checked on you this morning - you got your catheter out!!!!!! Yea!!!
My girlfriend had to keep her catheter for a long, long time because she has a bleeding disorder and every surgical procedure is a risk for her. She's 5 years out from lymphoma now and doing fine. I just know you will be fine, too.
Love you,
Aunt Blanche
Ouch! Well I'm sure glad you got it out. I have had a catheter too, and it's no fun. I'm so glad your life is getting better little by little.
