Hi, its Ann

Typing here to share my blood cancer adventure.

BLOOD – Day Twenty

Hello, Bradley here, because Ann’s hands don’t want to type.
Ann’s had a rough go since the last blog post. The past weekend was The Rock Bottom. But over the past four days, this is what’s happened: Ann is off the pain meds; Ann is off the IV nutrition; the mouth sores are mostly gone; apple sauce and chocolate pudding (the good, cake-batter-y kind) have been consumed. This is all to say: plans are in place to go home on Sunday.
So: port removal on Friday (fingers crossed); working on able to eat more food; working on more mobility; and having the last of the IV meds changed over to pills. She reports, “We’re close”.
Saturday Ann’s sister Beth arrives from Madison, and will be helping Ann adjust to life back home, and be her roommate.
That’s a rough report for now–more later after Ann is back in her home, and her fingertips don’t hurt.

    Thank you very much for the update, Mr. G.—the quiet was a wee bit unnerving; but it sounds like very good progress is being made.
    Between you and me, though, I’m not sure how eager Deb is gonna be to eventually turn Lenny back over, because it sounds like they’re having a Fine Old Time.
    Ann may have to go lay a little whupass on her…
