Scan today!

Happy New Year everyone! I had a blast at the cabin and am now back home. Nick, Nicholas, Chloe and I did our best to enjoy what little snow there was. They built a ramp with the snow in front of the house so we didn't have to go far to have fun. While they were "surfing" down the ramp, I stuck to sledding on my behind. I attempted to surf down the ramp twice... Falling on my side 1 second after take off each time. Overall it was a great vacation. Very relaxing, just what the doctor ordered!

On the health front- I have my follow up scan today at 3pm! I won't get the results until Monday at 4:30pm. I'm nervous now and imagine I will be until Monday. I just need to stay positive and focused on good health. Turns out my infection wasn't staph... It was pseudomonas. After 10 days of antibiotics I had to go back in this morning and have the doctor re-open the holes. This time I received 3 shots of numbing medicine before he cut open the spaces. Now cleaned, they got packed with gauze. I have to go to Roseville every 2 days to have it re-packed. There is NO way I could do that myself. I was naseaous just listening to the doctors talk about it! My doctor did say he has never seen an incision take so long to heal. This is one of those situations where you don't feel good about being special! Other than my lingering incision issues all is well. I'll write again on Monday to give everyone the cancer free news!

XOXO Britni
