Friday 21st December 2007 – 2 days left
December 21st, 2007
I am very sorry for not writing all week but I am trying so hard to recuperate so I would be able to go home in a few days. Well a lot happened during the week so I’ll write points:
Ø Tuesday was the last day I received IV’s so I have my hands free. They did more blood tests and my blood cells were finally ok.
Ø Wednesday they removed the stitches from the 1st surgery cut. I was also allowed to sit on the wheel chair. I felt dizzy and very uncomfortable but was determined to sit which I did for about 1 hour. Then when I returned to bed we realized the cut was bleeding a lot so they changed the bandage and I was to remain on the bed.
Ø Thursday started ok, the nurses changed my catheter and a few minutes after we realize the cut was bleeding so we called the nurses. This time the cut was re-opened and the Doctors came in and re-stitched it. These stitches would have to remain for 3 weeks and be removed home in Trinidad. My Doctor Dr. Wang said circulation and spasms caused
to the cut to reopen.
Ø Today we are all packed and Sunil is out shopping for gifts, mom is here with me and at 2pm the Stem cell Doctors would be doing a final evaluation on me.
I will write asap to keep everyone posted…
