Well I am finally home. We decided it didn't make sense to come home on Monday and do IV's for two days. It would have been too much of a hassle. I would have to get the meds delivered, pay all the medicine co-pays and then arrange for a nurse to come out to de-access the port when I was done. So I didn't mind staying just two more days to avoid all of that.
I had PFT's yesterday and they were 27. A small improvement from when I came in. It isn't a lot but as long as I can hold on to what I have....that is the most important thing. Right now I am still pretty tired and weak, but I feel better when it comes to the coughing. I am going to take it easy the next couple of days because we are going camping this weekend. I am excited. Jay, Erika, Kelly and I are going to go to Chenango Valley State Park near Binghamton, NY. I chose to go out there because it is only three hours from NYC. If I get the call while out there we will be able to jump in the car and go. I have to plan everything as if I am going to get the call. I got a two room cabin with a bathroom. We are all able to get away for awhile, but still have some comforts. I am not good at rustic camping. I need my electricity, oxygen dependent or not! haha
Doctors and medications have been my normal since I was born. My whole life I have been faced with challenges and have had to constantly adapt to them. I don't know anything different. This does not slow me down and I continue to go through my life with a positive outlook. I have a supportive family, irreplaceable friends and my amazing other half, Jason. Between them and my determined personality I am ready to take on anything that comes my way.
