Milestones and Boredom

Today I have been blogging for a whole 31 days! Can you believe it?! And you have only been bored to tears 28 times!
Speaking of being bored to tears...today was day number 4 in the hospital. erg.spalt.egads...we are BORED!!!
In between the confusion of "Is the port coming out today?" "Is the port coming out tomorrow?" We slept. We ate. We watched Anthony Bourdain. We slept. We dreamt about food. Somewhere around lunchtime they came and took my mom for an EKG...do not worry...just routine money spending, er, I mean, just routine tests. I'm guessing that all of you know what an EKG is so we wont go into that learning center today..plus, my friends, it's 10pm and I am FAR too tired to teach this evening...however, if you don't know, I will be oh so glad to teach at a later date.
After my mom returned from the EKG (electro-cardio gram) we ate. We slept. We watched more Anthony Bourdain. Then just as the clock struck 5pm, homey from ID (infectious diseases) came up and we wheeled my mom right down stairs and got that blasted port out...which by the way, she kept!
Now that the port is out they have given her a peripheral IV (in her arm) which really stinks because now she just feels immobile...but they may be putting a new port in a different spot in just a few days. That little port makes life so much easier...
anyway, I'm off to bed, my friends...until tomorrow.
and as always...keep sending the love and healing light!
