I was discharged a day early and so I am now home sweet home. It was good to sit outside for a little bit and to nap in my own comfy bed. My Hickman line was removed (ouch!) before I left BWH and my port was accessed, leaving me with a small needle protruding from my left chest.
I wish I could feel exuberant about leaving the hospital but I have so little energy. I am exhausted. The nausea has become a part of everyday life. I am tremendously achy due to the neupogen shots. I feel physically and emotionally worn down.These past weeks were difficult and challenging.
But now the challenge, this challenge, is over. There will be more challenges to come, no doubt. After a few days of rest, I'll be ready for whatever is put in my path.
I know it's only 7:30 at night, but I am heading to bed. Good night to all!
There really is no place like home! Congrats on getting through some very tough days, and we are praying for lots of rest and increased energy!
