I know I am slacking, but now that I am feeling better, it is off to the office for me so my time is stretched a little more!! I do have an update, but I am sure it is not what you want to hear...
Last Friday's news from Portland was so positive,but unfortunately, for Joey, it did not pan out like we had hoped. His drain for his gallbladder had to be hooked back up on Monday. This means another operation (in Portland) to have his gallbladder removed. Because of the chemo he had, he has to wait a little while longer and it will probably require a couple of nights stay at Maine Med. They have to take it out the old fashioned way, which means another incision and a longer recouping period. Joey looks at me and sees me doing (somewhat) normal activities after only 2 weeks and he knows how he feels after almost 2 months and it just doesn't seem fair to him that he is still not feelin up to par. Thank God for the nice weather though!! Over the weekend, he could be found laying in the party boat in the sun...soaking in the rays. He does take a walk up to our baseball field most days, so that is good, but he needs some nice uplifting news to get him refocused. Got any to share???????????????????????????
Me?...I am doing well. Still waiting for contac from my oncologist here to get the chemo thing set up. Hurry up and wait. That seems to be our life's motto right now. I head to Portland again on Tues. and it looks like Joey will be going with me to meet with Dr. Rutstein to set the plan in motion for his surgery.
Will let you know if anything new and exciting happens sooner!! Until then, God Bless and {{hugs}} to all...
