He had the needles in each arm. One good thing came out of it - it was in the same room as people who were donating blood, so I decided to have a go myself (I hadn't done it since student days). I still give blood now (in fact I donated today).Andriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16941588291118426290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7990840214005150995.post-71317697709480638202012-03-15T14:57:58.611-07:002012-03-15T14:57:58.611-07:00I bet that did feel bad when they removed the vasc...I bet that did feel bad when they removed the vascath while you were awake.. ICK! When I had my kidney and ureter and lymph nodes removed, I had a drainage tube in my side so the fluids left inside from surgery would drain and not cause infection..( I know.. probably TMI!! LOL) so the day came to finally get to go home..and the nurse that morning looked at the drainage tube and says that she wants to make sure it is working right..and she kind of like wiggles it way down in..OUUCH! It hurt like she was ripping an intestine out or something.. So later when I was getting ready to actually leave..in comes that nurse again and says that she is going to remove the drainage tube..I asked her if it was going to hurt anything like when she pushed on it that morning..and she says.. quite honestly, I might add.. that yes.. it is probably going to hurt even more than that..but it will be over very quickly! It felt horrible!! It was quick..but yea..the feeling was overwhelmingly 'not' good!!!! So I can just imagine! You are so brave!!! praying for you!Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05966305184632568370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7990840214005150995.post-53770024349333945702012-03-11T14:09:26.460-07:002012-03-11T14:09:26.460-07:00Aww, I bet it wasn't that bad!Aww, I bet it wasn't that bad!Nick Masseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08388012309220380730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7990840214005150995.post-57123288842479359952012-03-10T13:04:07.049-08:002012-03-10T13:04:07.049-08:00I wanted Jim to send you the photo of Sarah having...I wanted Jim to send you the photo of Sarah having the swine flu jab, but he says he got rid of it because of all her moans!!Franceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11247201682056038998noreply@blogger.com
