Big News...Update

I am so happy! I went in to the office to see Dr. Wynn today. The G-Tube was taken out, let me tell you what--IT HURT LIKE H---! Even after the tube was out it had a burning sensation. That was awful! Thank God, Danielle let me hold her hand and I bit my finger, because I would have scared off all the other patients. I am not kidding. The Jackson Pratt is a breeze compared to that. ANYWAYS--It is amazing I can breath easier, I am finding myself standing up straighter and having a little bit more energy. I guess if you think about it, it was a foreign object in my body and it was upsetting the apple cart. I have a hole on my stomach where it was at, she just put gauze on it and taped it up. I have to change it a few times a day until it stops bleeding/draining. I will be able to take a bubble bath in forty eight hours. Bubble bathes are my relaxing thing I like to do for me every now and then at night, which I have got to do since April. Now for the more exciting news---I will be at work Monday morning! I am going to work Monday and Wednesday morning for four hours and see how I do. Then we will take it from there and proceed to the next level the following week. In fact today, when I was there I did answer the phone a couple of time and scheduled a couple people. It sure felt good. SO to celebrate--I went to the mall and did some Christmas shopping. I was able to walk the whole mall. I haven't done that since May, what a huge accomplishment for me. Then I came home and took a rest in my lazy "girl" chair. I will take it easy the rest of the night. I just wanted to share my good news and thank you all for your continued support. I also want to give a BIG thanks for the prayers-God has truly been listening and He has been healing my body. He is such an awesome GOD! Hugs and many thanks Nicki
