Of course they're good for ya!!!0 -
In the States they give you the twighlight sleep as well. When DH had his he said he went to sleep and then woke up in the recovery area. The prep stuff I picked up is a little different than what DH had. I think they keep trying to improve it. Seems I don't have to drink as much of the mixture but I do have to follow it with water. Thanks OK I like water.

The florist is giving discounts on the cost, bless their hearts. The DEADLINE to add your flower is FRI, 8-17, BY NOON Eastern time. Debbie is the sweet girl I spoke to, but anyone there will be able to help you.

Momine, then you have the same avatar as someone from Toronto. Is your avatar generic or did you draw it?

Thanks Sue, I love when we do that
Momine - you just tell them that you've been through quite enough thank you, and that if they want you to have the procedure, you want to be asleep. I can't imagine they'd turn you down if you demand it!!

Barbe, the avatar is from a website, hyperbole and a half, I can highly recommend because it is very funny.
Mariegal, I will certainly try when the time comes.0 -
I just ordered my flowers for Reesie's bouquet. Debbie will take a picture & e-mail me a copy when it's finished.

Momine, I LOVE that blog and never can find it, thanks!! I hit on it every couple of years and desperately love her humour!! I checked it out by just typing in the www address and it was about depression. Very apropos!!
0 -
Meant to ask, though, Momine, what is being said in your avatar?
0 -
Reesie's arrangement has over two dozen flowers on it so far. It should look very nice when finished. Post a picture from your email tomorrow, Eph.

That's my plan E, but may have to wait till after work since I'm techno-challenged!!

The woman at that flower store was so sweet. She described all the flowers to me, saying how many of them just began opening yesterday and will be in full bloom tomorrow for the service. It makes me proud to be a part of this group ... not that I needed reminding, but ya know what I mean
Joni, luckily it'll be a Friday so you'll have lots of us on board (ha, little pun there!) to walk you through the posting!!

Thank you for the well wishes and hugs, today was not good my port is plugged again. they will try to open it up if they cannot they will have to put draino in to desolve the clot that is blocking it. Not sure of what they use so i call it draino. Doc just laughted, not to happy right now, don't want to have to postpone.0
-
(((hugs))) dgcote!!!! I hope you will be "flushed" for your next treatment!

dgcote, Normally, I believe they use the blood thinner, Heparin, to keep the port clear; but you are correct that for stubborn clogs/clots they are not above using good ol' fashioned Draino! LOL!

Barbe, the avatar is from her story about trying to be a grown-up. When she decides to act like a grown-up, one of the things she does ia to "clean all the things." Then after a bit of time, she loses the desire to act like a grown-up, and when she contemplates cleaning she asks herself "clean ALL the things?" and looks very sad. That is the avatar.

BARBE-This strapping young man asked if he could join in our pocket party today for you! Said he wouldn't miss it for the world!! And since you are the lady of honor, you are the first to get the oil rub down. He says he'll be there at 2:30 to start the massage!! Lucky gal!!!

Count me in for that pocket party I am sure Barbe will share.(careful of the pacemaker)0

I'm impressed...except for...is that his white LEG??? poking out??? I'd like him to come (pun intended) a bit earlier so the massage can be done BEFORE I have to see the Onc. Thanks, and yes, I'm willing to share!!!
