DUN DUN DUN..........................no more good news, yet. I had a central line put in yesterday. (that really hurt!) It is called a Hickman, and if you want to know more about it, go to http://wwwcancerhelp.org.uk/help/default.asp?page=2586 . I also have to get a colonoscopy on Monday, so i can't eat until then, that is if they don't find anything to interfere with anything. It was a wonderful surprise though, because Andy and Laura came to visit me on Tuesday night after they dropped Andy's uncle at the airport. Then today, an even better surprise was that Ms. Velma Peck came to visit me. Well, I'm gonna go now, my Hickman is still pretty sore. By the way, speaking of THAT, I suggest you don't research it if you have too weak of a stomach (although this website isn't too graphic!) See ya'll later. I probably won't be on until like Tuesday, cuz I will be pretty unsociable until then. Gotta go, my doc is here!

Kayla,

Sorry to hear you are back in the Hospital, hope you get better soon. I know the Hickman line is a pain but on the positive side, they shouldn't have to poke you anymore. They should be able to do everything through your line. No more pic lines, no more IVs no more blood draws. They should even be able to administer meds through it. Just be care to keep it CLEAN. No infections young lady! Just kidding. Take care and keep your head up.
