I’m so ready to break out of the hospital, but I need to be patient for another day or two. At least you can Door Dash to the hospital; so I was able to have PF Changs for dinner!! Dani decided to eat my hospital meal. Haha!! 

Yesterday’s surgery went well and they cleared out the infection and were able to put a new tissue expander in. I have two drains and a Wound VAC attached to me for the next week or two. 

They were concerned about my Kidney levels yesterday, but after an ultrasound of the area, lots of IV fluids and lowered numbers this morning, they’re no longer concerned about that!! 

I’m sorta back to square one since I had another surgery, so I can’t drive for a few weeks and can’t lift Jason. I’m still waiting (not so patiently) for the results that will tell me about Chemo. 

I’ve been super cheerful and optimistic since day 1 of my diagnosis, but this setback has been more difficult for me emotionally. Continued thanks for everyone who keeps sending messages and love; you’re getting me through this difficult time!!
