Finally everything is sorted out. Mainly I had to wait for a bm to happen. I had not had one for awhile, and the docs wanted to be sure all was working properly in that area. Now it is.
It's just a bit late to hustle out of here right now, so they are letting me stay over until the morning. The date stamp on this blog is early afternoon, but it's being updated now - at five in the afternoon. Now, just one more evening/night here, then back to the real world, in significantly better condition than when I left.
More (optional) treatments
After today's treatment I met with Dr. H. He said all is looking good. If, however, I would like to take two more treatments on Monday/Tuesday, my cure rate could go from 90% to, maybe 92%. (beats me where they get stats like that, but that's what I have to work with). The treatments would be as an out patient and he said it was entirely up to me to take them or not.
My first reaction was to pass. It just didn't look like that good a return on my investment of time and effort.
Then I went back to my room to have a post treatment nap. As I relaxed, it came to me that I should do all I can to optimize cure chances. I would hate for this thing to come back on me after not doing all I could do at this point.
I can hear Sam and Jennifer going, 'Yay Mom - go for it, we love you!'
Also, I have been given the gift of being able to tolerate the treatments, now that I'm put back together. I will honor that by continuing on, doing all modern radiology knows to do for my condition.
Please pray as you are lead that God will bless these final treatments and the healing processes, both now and in the coming weeks.
