I'm waiting for them to take a look at it now but the np sounded like she thought it might be some kind of reaction too so that's good. I'll let you know what happens.
I just made some cupcakes and I have managed to get 22 cupcakes from my cake mix. I used a 1/4 cup measure cup to scoop out the cake mix into each muffin cup. No way I can get 24 though.
So you're saying I need to be more disciplined in my batter measuring skills?
No. I'm sure everyone would rather have your cupcakes than mine. They seem puny... I could only imagine how small they would be if you ended up with 24.

Blah. I'm being admitted. I'm so pissed. I had plans this weekend and they said I might be in all weekend and possibly more. Aubrey's birthday is Monday! I don't want to be in the hospital for that. I'm so frustrated with this right now. I finished chemo three weeks ago. Things should be getting better and they're not. I'll check in again later. I'm sure I'll have lots of time this weekend.
Oh no @somethingclever I'm glad you went in bc apparently it wasn't okay, but I'm sorry you have to be in all weekend. Hope you're home by Sunday night.
Boo, sorry you have to stay @somethingclever but it's best to get fixed/better sooner rather than later. What is the reason they are keeping you? Is it infected?

They think the port might be infected or possibly cellulitis on the chest wall. My white blood cells are normal and there's no fever so hopefully it won't be as bad as my doctor thinks. She's being extra cautious because my surgery is in a week and a half.
somethingcleverer. Better to be safe than sorry I guess. Do you at least have a couple of good books lined up?
I'm in between books any suggestions? I was going to look up that series you mentioned before but haven't. I have been catching up on my magazines.
Update on me: I'm still here, definitely staying tonight and probably staying tomorrow. More than likely they'll remove the port and send me home on antibiotics, possibly iv antibiotics but I have no idea when that will be. I think we might just tell Aubrey her birthday is a different day and celebrate when I'm home. She doesn't know what day her birthday is so I think it will be ok.

Anything by Susanna kearsely if you want a stand alone book. I've read Mariana, Firebird, The winter sea, the rose garden, and enjoyed them all. They are old enough that you could probably get them right from the library without a hold. I looked and I can't loan any of them, sorry. Aubrey won't know the difference. She will remember her birthday with you there and will have no idea you lied to her.

Just catching up on 4 pages worth of Chat Stew:
So sorry you are stuck in the hospital!! Hoping you get to bust out sooner than you think. Glad you got it checked though. You are almost to the finish line of this marathon you are running! Still thinking of you often even though I've been MIA!

I think I might get out tomorrow. It's not 100% until my oncologist approves everything but I think they are leaving the port in and sending me home on oral antibiotics!

somethingcleverer, just seeing all of this now. I'm so sorry they had to admit you. I'm hoping you get out today and are feeling better! Thinking of you girl.
somethingcleverer, hugs girl. I hope you get to leave tomorrow morning and get to rest and spend time with your family before the surgery. Thinking of you!
