Friends,
What a beautiful day in Charlotte today....a welcome change from the recent rainy days. Today was another good day at church, I even went to Sunday School. By the end of service I was so ready to come home. The cath bag I use on road trips has to be strapped to my leg. Well, it managed to work it's way loose, lots of ups and downs in church caused it I suspect. Anyway, it was loose and pulling on my cath....the only thing holding it in was the balloon in the bladder. Needless to say I was anxious to get home.
What I thought was an infection starting earlier in the week has not gotten worse. I think it is some "natural" secretions that just happen to become noticeable because of the catheter. It doesn't hurt and with this thing coming out tomorrow, I am confident everything is gonna be OK.
I suspect the coming days will bring many new challenges. With the catheter out there is an expectation of urinary and erectile disfunction. While I love that so many people have been a part of my journey here, my #1 goal is to inform others and their families about Prostate Cancer and treatments. So, I intend to frankly discuss how "things" work, never trying to be crude but always trying to be real and factual. Enuf said 'bout that!
Only three more shopping days til Christmas. I think I am about as ready as I can get. Left hand is not any better, maybe even a bit worse? Going to the ortho doc on Tuesday with a hope that some kind of new treatment will help.
Merry Christmas to you all. May the joys and love and peace of the season fill your homes and hearts.
More tomorrow...til then.... I Love You All.... Thank You Lord for Your Blessings on Me MR
