Wound is okay..phew..!!!

Hi Folks,

The nurse came today to change out the dressing on my wound and to inspect it. She was very please with what she saw and applied a new type of dressing on it. This is to help the promote skin growth. We will have to wait till tomorrow to see if my swab from last week turns out to be anything nasty.

I now have an appointment to have a MRI scan on my liver. The St Vincent MRI department called today and arranged for one next Monday. This results of this scan will put to rest a lot of questions that is floating about.

Pain wise I am taking the tramdol twice a day now. The pain is mostly around my mid section and it seem to be steady and not getting worse or any better. Sleep wise I am catching up with sleep when ever my body needs it. I would doze off for 1 or 2 hours at a time then be awake the rest of the time. My gut is what is causing me the most grief. It has settle down a bit. I can feel the stools passing the two joins. Especially where the lump used to be. This can be very discomforting as it brings back some very bad memories.

It is now almost a year since I went to see our GP about my illness. Just to think I was only constipated back then and now to see exactly what my ignorance had brought upon myself and my family. I just wish now I went to see him sooner and I would had nip this in the bud much quicker. All in hindsight and in my new way of thinking its in the past and time to let go and move on. It is also a bit worrying that it is almost 5 months since my last chemo and there is always a nagging thought in the back of my mind that these lumps in my liver might be growing. I hope the scan on Monday will put that to rest and to ease my mind. There a a lot of doubts floating about and the less I think of them the better but sometimes I do have to let them surface so that I can address them.

Jordan have taken the job of clearing out his cubby hole whole heartily now. He had discovered his soft toys and his beloved PS1. The old grey brick...sadly it is not working and it is not worth fixing it. Just imagine the old memories that had brought about. I think we bought that for him when he was 5 and he specifically had ask for it. We also uncovered a couple of boxes of photos so I think Elaine would be shifting thought these as well. If there are any good ones I scan these in and post them here....

Later,

Sai
