Well I'm going HOME today, and God I can't wait. Yesterday, they took a 3rd biopsy from me, like the 2nd one, it was in my pelvis to get my bone marrow. The doctors were 99% sure I had a type of bone/blood cancer, and just needed to confirm it before starting a specific chemo treatment. But now from the early results, they can't find anything in the sample that looks like cancer, so everyone here is stumped. Some are thinking its something else, one even suggested that I don't even have cancer (I'd really like to know where the 8 billion tumours on my spine came from in that case) but they all agree for now that its unreasonable for me to stay here while they test their samples and wait for the radiation treatments I took to wear off, and then of course I'll have to come back for more testing, and once they discover what my primary site is, the chemo starts... but at least I get a week off, or so...

So I'm sitting here, been up for 26 hours or so, minus the hour I was down during the biopsy, waiting for the doctors to come see me and confirm that I can go home, what I need to take with me (I'm still having trouble with mobility), as wells as medication, etc... just thought I'd post a quick update for those who were wondering how things are going... so if all fares well I will be home by (my guess would be) 4pm, and aside from taking today off to catch up on my sleep, I would so love to have visitors, so don't be shy, gimme a call, stop by, I'm not contagious :P
