My spleen will be removed on Friday.
Everyone has been asking me are you ready?
Ready? For what? I think I'm prepared. My kids will be taken care of thanks to Grannie and Lynnie, I have stocked the fridge, I have dusted the things that don't get dusted very often.
(ie: the fans, the base boards, the lights, I thought if I'm laid up for a couple of days these things would drive me insane to look at.)
After many tests and lots of my blood taken, my doctor thinks if the spleen comes out I will feel better. The funny thing is it doesn't hurt and I feel fine. I am getting sick more often, but next to having RA (I wish they could remove that from my body!) it's a walk in the park. The doctor also told me that I will have more energy because apparently I'm anemic too. I thought that tending 7 kids plus my two was the reason for my ability to fall asleep within 15 seconds of my head hitting the pillow. Well the countdown has begun, wish me luck!
