It’s Wednesday

Here we are.

I’ve been on IV antibiotics for two weeks. Yesterday I got my infusion at 5am per usual and by 6:30 I called my husband to come home. My nurse was unable to fix what had happened which is this:

I have two ports. Both ports are flushed with saline and Heparin . One port gets the iv infusion started. Afterwards that port is again flushed with saline.

I went to sleep after the infusion and woke up soaking wet. My picc line was leaking. Sometimes the strength of the medication can break down the line. 

We called my doc. The people who do picc lines travel all over the country, why? I don’t know but if you want a job that flies you from hospital to hospital, this is it. So we get an eta of 5 hours. 

I go back to bed. First time in my life that I decide that worry won’t to any good. 

We go do that, have a vid appointment with my infectious disease doc and then we went to vote!!!!!!

My youngest son will vote for his first time on Saturday. It really makes me miss my dad. He was really looking forward to this. He’d be so proud of my youngest and that all members of my family vote. That was very important to him.

I’m sleepy. 

All my love,

Tracy
