so, had the procedure in omaha, and guess what? i still have crohn's. it could have been a lot worse, but basically mr. thaddius crohns is a very grumpy fellow. not really sure where to go from here - knowing what the problem is is one thing, fixing it is another... I'm just waiting until my next iv infusion next tuesday to see if that helps. which it will, if for no other reason than i get the morning off of school and i get to sleep extra and be out of it all day with a completely valid excuse. i hope that my arms heal by then - at least one of them, because they're both bruised and sore from ivs.
I feel fine now, but only time will tell what that really means and if I'm actually ok. In any case, I loved getting to spend some time with my parents, both of whom rock. Mom helped me down the disgusting pineapple medicine the night before, and dad drove me back and took me out for supper today. I can't imagine getting through all of this without their support. Mikey was great too - calling to check up, make sure I was ok, hear the results, and make me laugh as always. I get to see him in 6 days, which is of the utmost awesomeness.
I went on a cleaning rampage tonight - well, I tried to go to class, but that really wasn't working out and my teacher told me to go home, I think I was still really drugged up, but I felt fine haha. don't worry, I took the bus.
So instead, I spent the last 2.5 hours cleaning, OCD style. throwing things away, cleaning out drawers, filing papers, color coding my shoes, throwing away pens that don't work. i feel good now, like i can think. and the vacuum cleaner is fixed (thanks dad!).
ok peej is here and i need to catch up
more later
p.s. kaitlin and i are hanging out soon and that makes me so stoked i cannot even explain it!!
