I have such a short memory and after 2 weeks I tend to forget what it was like. I thought that a couple of weeks ago I thought that it was due to the port being recently implanted. It is quite uncomfortable as I can feel the liquid going into me and I need to…
I went out this morning to get my blood work done and the roads are still quite atrocious. I arrived at the hospital and there were quite a lot of people there registering for various things. People who were scheduled for yesterday to come in arrived this morning hoping to have their appointment. Or people…
It is ridiculous how much snow we have received in the last 24 hours. I have never seen so many things within the city shut down before but considering the road conditions it was expected. I had planned to go in for blood work this afternoon but with all of the cancellations I think the…
Last night I almost forgot to post and remembered when I was about to go to bed. I had written the entry earlier in the day and it then slipped my mind to go back and post something. I got distracted with things yesterday and got caught up in things. We had people stop over…
Xavier had a game yesterday and the team as a whole did not play well. People think that I am tough on Xavier, but Mel is just as bad if not worse, which amuses me a bit. He did not play horrible, but he did not live up to the standard that we have for…

Sometimes the healthcare system can move incredibly fast. This morning I received a phone call at 7:30am asking if I could come in to get my ascites drained. They asked how quickly I could come in and I replied 13 minutes. It did not take me 13 minutes as I did not remember to factor…
I had quite a few appointments today and they went much longer than I had anticipated. The coordinator dropped by this morning and we established what I needed for home care. I asked for a wheelchair and we will be getting one this week for a 30 day trial to see how much I like…
My abdomen feels really tight and it has not been super comfortable right now. Yesterday Mel and myself went to Costco in the afternoon and we went through the store fairly quickly and that is about the limits of what I can manage. We went through and got all of the groceries required and managed…
