No New News

The past few days I have not really gotten any new news.  The doctors and still arguing back and forth I have been told by dad.  I almost wish that my stomach would just magically get better so I didn't have to get that lovely test.  But I know my luck, that won't happen.

No UCONN for me tonight. :(  The other night I just realized an hour drive would be the longest distance I have gone throughout this whole thing and if something had gone wrong, I wouldn't be right down the street for my parents to get me. I am super bummed; I really wanted to see Alanna and Nick and go get some of my favorite food I have missed since graduating. But it's better for my health that I shouldn't go. BOOOOO.

Last night we had Nana's belated 85th birthday dinner here.  Dad made a seafood pasta dish, and some chicken parm.  I devoured my chicken parm, and stole some shrimp from the seafood dish because that's the only type of seafood that I eat.  It was nice to see the family; plus I was able to give Greg a warning about my birthday celebration next week and my outfit that I plan on wearing.  Let's talk about I can not believe that my birthday is in 6 days.  Ugh, so not even prepared for that one. Although, depending on next week, I'm hoping to go into work and maybe get a little cake with my coworkers and hang out with them.  I was promised a birthday cake from Maryellen back before I was sick that I have been looking forward to since the promise was made. :)

Monday is the big ultra sound that will be compared by the one I had the first day at the hospital.  This will tell us how my blood clot has HOPEFULLY reduced and possibly even disappeared.  The fact that I'm walking and the swelling continues to go down makes me really happy but you never know.  Although this is the first appointment I have gone to I'm confident about.  Go figure that one out....the most important appointment since going into the hospital and it's the one I am totally fine with it.

Hope everyone is doing wonderfully and keeping warm in this freezing cold weather.  Everyday that I find out another one of my loved ones gets a kick out of reading this brings a smile to my face.  Really and truly, I love you guys for making this whole thing a little easier to deal with.
