PaHunters camping season comes to an abrupt close due to cancer.

[Stratman50th]

Sorry Chris. Hang in there brother, our thoughts are with you.

 

[PaHunter]

Got to play it careful. Best to stay. Not enjoyable I know.

I know I do, even if it is not the most fun.

Sucks your return home was delayed. Hopefully, your fever subsided and you can finally relax at home.

Sucks your return home was delayed. Hopefully, your fever subsided and you can finally relax at home.

unfortunately I have been running 2 short lived fevers a day it seems. So still here. Got to visit with Reba on Sunday for a few minutes as it was hot out and I did not want her to overheat.

 

[FtW Mike]

Chris I am sure that your reunion with Reba no matter how short was good for both of you and will go a long way in helping you to recover

 

[Teamubr]

Thanks for the update. Great you got to see Reba, but stinks about the fevers.

[jbrostek]

Fingers crossed those subside. Glad you got to see your pup though.

 

[PaHunter]

Well tonight is catching up on some late night tv shows. Slept first round about 3.5 hours, 2nd round about 2 hours. Every once in awhile a yawn, but that is it. Although went for a walk down the hall, so quiet here at night.

 

[FtW Mike]

That you feel good enough to roam the ward is a good sign. Hopefully you will be home soon

 

[Teamubr]

so quiet here at night.

I worked nights for 12 years. Hospitals really are a different world after 9pm or so. Less commotion, staff are more laid back.

Hopefully the fevers are subsiding and you get kicked out soon.

Chris I hope this message finds you at home resting. I wanted to share with you something. About a week before I was offered my management position in September I found I had had lymphoma again in different area following having a mass removed from my groin. This time I did 3 rounds of chemo followed by 20 rounds of radiation. I have now been declared cancer free again. I have not missed a day of work during all this. I know your situation is much harder than mine was. You are strong and have many friends praying. Keep up the faith and follow the process. Focus on the finish not the battle. We will all be camping again soon.

You’re still in our thoughts and prayers! Thought it might cheer ya up, they had the cast member preview of the fireworks returning to MK last night -

 

[PaHunter]

Well it is 445 on Friday morning, I have already been up for a couple hours. As per the conversation with the Dr yesterday, I should be headed home later today. And as I type this the fire alarm is going off, been one of those nights.
0730 edit - So antibiotic has been DC'd, so I am currently able to walk around without an IV pole, small victories. I did get some time yesterday without the IV pole which was nice. See how the rest of my day goes.
Waiting on Dr and the team to make their morning visit.

Good news about going home. Bad news about fire alarm. I wish I was not awake either right now.

 

[Teamubr]

And as I type this the fire alarm is going off, been one of those nights.

I always told my patients, a hospital isn't a good place to be if you aren't sick. Sounds like you are getting close.

Good news Chris I look forward to your going home post. I am sure Jen and Reba cant wait for you to be home.

Just checking in, I hope that you get to go home soon, nothing worse than waiting on a doctor to make his rounds...

Sending, Good Thoughts and Vibes, and more pixie dust... and prayers for you and yours... God Blessings to you all.

 

[FtW Mike]

Getting Home is one of the best therapeutic treatments I have ever seen. Just hearing I was being allowed to go home and then GET DRESSED had my whole attitude do a 180

 

[jbrostek]

Glad to hear that Chris!!!! Glad you get to go home and recover in your own space! It's never easy to recover in someone else's butt dent.

PS: Anything you would like from Disney? Back scratcher? Mickey printed hospital gown (I am sure they have them somewhere)? Pixie Dust container?

Chris, if you start dancing around the IV pole they'll likely let you go home sooner.

If you were my patient, it would certainly cause me to sign a discharge order.
