Time for a Break
Weekend's here and no appointments!!! Dave is eating everything in sight, so looks like I'll have to get to a grocery store one more time before we make it home. Thurs. will be the last day of appointments, but no radiation. Dr. Hickman, who is now 82 yrs. old, will be pulling out Dave's Hickman catheter (the line in Dave's chest which he had put in, in Kalispell). What a milestone that will be. As you have probably already guessed, Dr. Hickman invented the catheter and still works. It will be exciting to actually meet him. Gotta go, Dave's hungry AGAIN!!!

Congratulations, only one more week to go and then you get to go home. You two have done a great job of getting through it all. It isn't easy but it is worth it. Just remember it will still take a while to get back to normal so take it gradually and accept the bad days and glory in the good days. The good days far out way the bad ones. Happy for you both.
ReplyDeletePS if you have any pain medication left take two about one hour before Dr. Hickman takes out the catheter. It hurts. GlenH
You are on the down hill slide and can about count the days on one hand until you'll be home. I'm anxious to see you again. Better notify the Whitefish PD of your home coming!!!! God Bless you both....Toni
