    Thanks everyone for the well wishes!!!! Everything went well but did hit a snag when I was finally allowed to get up and walk around the one catheter access point struck a big leak all over the floor, it was quite a sight!.....back laying in bed for a few hours and will try again.

    Hope everyone stays warm and cozy!!! Can't wait to get hhome tomorrow to a "hopefully" warm house!

    Great to hear (almost) everything went well! You will be up and about in no time. Get some rest. I'm sure the house will be very warm and cozy with those sets burnin' in the stove! Take care, and looking forward to hear your report that you are back home!

    Glad to hear everything went well!!

    Was that the site where they enter the vein?

    Because I had a procedure that required a catheterization, hole in heart repair. Well I had to urinate while recovering, shunt was still in, and had to go in that fancy shaped Tupperware container. Well I though I was going and felt a warm sensation down my leg, thought to myself I must be urinating down my leg. I moved the blanket and nope, blood everywhere lol. Just so happens everyone was in the room at that time. Servers, cleaners, high school interns, etc. And me exposed to the works as they are trying to stop the bleeding. Quite a seen I tell you. It was like that scene from something about Mary where he gets the Frank's and beans stuck.

    Yes....hole where the catheter goes in, it was quite the scene!

    I'm still in the damm hospital, that spot started to ooze right before they were getting discharge papers together.....looks like I won't be out until the afternoon now....fingers crossed

    Everyone here has seen WAY more of me than I wanted them too!!!!! Lol

    As frustrating as it is it is better to be there than to run the risk of having to go back.
