So they removed the Picc line but this has meant all the nightmares of finding my veins to take blood/ insert a cannula have returned. The Picc line was only removed the day before yesterday and I already have at least 9 holes in my arms/hands!
They also did a CT scan from which the doctor has said there could be an infection near my spleen. This has been referred to my surgeon to see what they want to do about what they can see.
In the meantime I’ve been having issues with my blood pressure and pulse rate, which is causing extreme tiredness and nausea.
I made it to 40 last week... and I was at home for my birthday, though not feeling well. Andy did the place up with banners and balloons and bought me an infinity necklace to match the bracelets I bought for Margot, Sophie and me for the wedding, so that was really lovely.
I can’t see myself being allowed home from hospital any time soon, so I’ve just got to deal with it for now.
Dear Charlene.....you are a bloody star believe me....I have already worn out a pair of good trousers kneeling, and praying for you....My own God seems not to be listening to me at the moment and I am extremely pxssed off about that.
ReplyDeleteI shall have to try harder with my prayers and ask her/him/them to pull their proverbial fingers out...there are three of them you know...The Holy Trinity.....Father Son (Jesus) and the Holy Spirit..(I am doing all the same things as Diane in her Theology Studies).....believe me she is even more pxssed off than I am: she is praying harder than me...There are so many people who love you Charlene...so please hang in there for you and for your family and for the rest of us. The Doctors and Nurses sound like they are doing all they can for you. Always your friend and admirer since your cleaning days kid (sic)..tee hee! Love Gran xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
