Drains Drains Go Away

Bill is gentle and patient as ever and talks and loves me through the process.  The effort of emptying of the drains and cleaning of the sites in the mornings truly isn't as bad as last year.  I do seem to still hit my window of opportunity in the early evening and the window slams shut for the most uncalculated moments.  I just need to have a moderation of meds and being not too tired to sit through the process.  I truly know how fortunate I am to be given a clean bill of health, be done with treatment and moving ahead all my pieces coming together.  It is the unpredicted look at the altered body, the drains themselves, the mess of a popped drain cap, the leftover surgical writing on my torso, a general reflection of 20 months that sometimes requires an emotional purge.  I always get back to the clean bill of health and how blessed I am to be on a great path to great health.  I got to spend a nice holiday with my three favorite guys and got to hear tales of current events and plans for the coming months.  Don't worry any purges I have are truly fortifying the person I fought to get back to.  I'm a happy person.  Drain check first thing Monday morning with Dr. Marble.  Keep the positive thoughts coming, maybe one can come out!
