How sick you must have been of the sights, sounds and smells of hospital! It doesn't sound very promising about your picc line. Did they explain why it had clogged. I hope thatb the hospital is close enough for travel expenses not to be a worry.
Have you got help and tlc on tap for the next week to help you recuperate before climbing back into the ring? Take care xxx Penny
hi jane , just a few words to say i hope you are feeling better now sorry to hear about you trouble with the picc line & infection . get lots of rest love . i havn't got one so not up on the ins & outs of them . i do hope that everything gets sorted asap . just wanted to send you my best wishes take care love & hugs treeze xxx
It must be such a relief to be out of hospital after such a horrid week - I'm sure being home will help you to recover much more quickly, and with luck everything will be fine and ready to go by next Thursday. Good luck with the new picc line and the white blood cell count! Lots of love, Kate xxx
hope you are keepng ok your self and hanging on in there
no i live far away from hospital costs me 40 return when i cant get a lift to my chemo they wanted me to do chemo in 2 days but i said no it would cost me to much money as ive been gettin treated since last nov 2007 has cost me a right bit of money i no that money should not matter health is more inportant than money but not going to throw it at taxi men had guy come and see me in hosp as ive not ben gettin any benifits since i took cancer last aug2007 so hopeing
