MaryAnn, I have said it before and will say it again...your truly AMAZING! I just smiled and laughed when I read the part about your doctor thinking about moving your Hickman port...and how he DOESN'T know you very well. lol
No he doesn't...but I bet he is getting a good idea by now.  I am so glad to hear it cleared up and doesn't have to be moved. Its also fantastic that you didn't have to deal with that darn chest tube either. Yeah! Sounds like your well on your way girl.
I am so glad to hear you got a reprieve from your IV...that must of been a REALLY nice change!
Your just unbelieveable. I swear...I can almost hear you laughing and see you smiling through your words. Keep that aweseome sense of humor you have...and continue to blow your doctor away. lol
Keep us posted...and behave yourself. hahaha
Sending you warm & healing thoughts.
Chelee
