Back to the operating room I go!

Well, this sucks big time.  Dr. Morrissey saw me today, & said that there's no way to get the infection out other than through surgery.  Plus, he wants to re-submit tissue to determine what type of infection this is that keeps coming back.  This time, he said, I have to stay for at least 2 - 3 days.  Ugh.  That's because he may not suture the wound, but leave it open & pack it.  Then, I'll have to go back in to have it closed.  As for chemo, he told us that they won't give me chemo until this is treated.  That's why he's operating on me tonight - to get me up & walking around again so I can have the treatment.


The doctor was in surgery all morning, had afternoon office hours, then had a procedure in Bethlehem.  He'll be turning back around & coming to Quakertown to do my surgery @ 7:00 pm.  Gotta feel blessed to have such a good guy taking care of you!  It would be better not to have this happen again, though.  


Keep you posted!!
