Today has been a long day, did make some progress though. Had the epidural removed, making the transition to oral pain medication, had a few tubes (A.K.A. leashes) disconnected and was able to walk a lap again. If all goes well the chest tube will be out tomorrow!

The Doctor visited, and Oncology will be discussing me in the big meeting tomorrow. They are sending my slides, and samples to the Mayo Clinic in Arizona for further review and testing. We will be patiently awaiting for results.

    Attitude is everything!
    Good luck getting the chest tubes out, I can only imagine how uncomfortable those must be.

    BTW- Congrats on graudating past the leash portion of your test:)
