SORRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HELLO EVERYONE AND I AM SO SORRY ABOUT NOT UPDATING SOONER. ALICIA AND I ARE FINALLY DOING A LITTLE BETTER. I AM STILL HAVE TERRIBLE PAINS IN MY SIDE BUT THE DRAIN LINE THAT WAS INSERTED IN MY SIDE TO DRAIN ANY FLUID BUILD UP WAS REMOVED LAST THURSDAY. I AM HOPING I AM NOT BUILDING UP FLUID AGAIN AND WE WOULD HAVE TO START ALL OVER, I HAVE A CT SCAN ON MONDAY TO CONFIRM THAT. I ALSO SEEN THE CANCER DOCTOR HERE I KANSAS AND I LIKE HIM A LOT. HE IS COMMUNICATING WELL WITH DR RICHARDS IN CINCINNATI. I HAVE ANTHER APPT WITH HIM AFTER THE CT. THEN ITS ON TO THE LIVER AND KIDNEY SPECIALIST FROM THERE.


ALICIA HAS A HORRIBLE COUGH RIGHT NOW. SHE SEEN HER DOC HERE YESTERDAY AND THEY TESTED HER FOR THE SWINE FLU AND OTHER THINGS BUT ALL TESTS WERE NEGATIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE HAVE BEEN SPENDING A LOT MORE TIME TOGETHER NOW THAT I AM FEELING A LITTLE BETTER. SHE IS RIGHT HERE WITH ME NOW, BOY I MISSED HER SO MUCH WHEN ALL OF THIS WAS HAPPENING!!!!!!!!!!!!


WE ALSO MOVED IN THE TIME I HAVE NOT UPDATED. MY LEASE WAS UP IN THE APARTMENT AND I FOUND SOMETHING A LITTLE CHEAPER AND WITH ME NOT WORKING I WILL TAKE ANYTHING CHEAPER.


ONCE AGAIN I AM SO SORRY FOR NOT UPDATING. I REALIZE THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE WHO CARE AND WORRY ABOUT US AND I AM SORRY. I WANT TO SAY A SPECIAL THANKS TO DIANE FOR THE CARD YOU SENT.... IT MADE MY DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

a quick update

Hello everyone this is Michelle and I wanted to let everyone know that I am ok. I have been in and out of the Hospital for the past month as Alicia has as well. We were both discharged yesterday and she is staying with Erika. I am still in a very lot of pain and I have a drain tube sticking out of the right side of my abdomin. Alicia seems to be feeling very well again but she is still on anti-biotics for the bacteris they did find. I have follow up appointments all next week and the following so I will let everyone know all of the details just as soon as I find out my self. I just wanted to Thank everyone for so many prayers and ask for them to keep coming!!!

MULTIPLE DRS SAY ALL THE PAIN IS FROM HAVING 2 SURGERYS BACK TO BACK AND IS TAKING LONGER TO HEAL. IT IS HURTIN MICHELLE A GREAT DEAL THAT SHE CAN NOT BE THERE FOR ALICIA. THEY DID PUT A BIGGER DRAINAGE TUBE IN HER BUT SHE CAN GO WITH THAT AND MAY POSSIBLY GO HOME TONIGHT OR TOMORROW............................................DENISE
