Food... YUCK

my back 3 days after surgery, a lot more bruising
my back 2nd day after surgery, 7 holes into the skin 3o0 in the hip bones

ok ha ha ummmm I decided to put the hip surgery pics back on, some people wanna see and some don't sorry for those that it grosses out ha ha ha


Hey everyone, I over did it yesterday causing myself to feel very sick!!! I feel a lot better now but I should have taken it easy after going through a big surgery like that... I should have listened to my grandmother:) She took such good care of me yesterday!!! I am still very sore and my lower back is one big purple bruise! We had to stay home today because My dad and lil bro are sick and I thought I was coming down with a lil something but I think it was just from not resting enough after my surgery. I really wanted to celebrate mothers day:( I feel so bad for my mommy, but we are going to celebrate it once were able to go back to the hospital... so maybe on wednesday. or thursday. Today is Sarah's last day of steroids, the reason she had to take steroids was so that they could keep infection away. She just got a transfusion of platelets, they are going to give her calories through her IV because she hasn't been eating... she lost 12 pounds in one day. She tried to eat mac and cheese today but couldn't because the chemo is effecting her taste buds causing all of her food to taste "really gross" other than that I guess it's just a waiting game again to see how her body takes my bone marrow.
*love you all*

My name is Meghan and I have rec ently been diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma which is a terminal cancer of the bone marrow. They are going to give me a bone marrow transplant to try and give me some more time. I have already been through radiation and chemo, but I am horrified about the transplant. I would like to IM you, but I don't know how. I am giving you my phione number so that if you have any free time maybe you could please call me. 435-633-4569

Take it easy sister! It takes awhile for the drugs they give you to leave you system. You may not think about it but for the next few weeks you need to flush.
Hope everyone is feeling better?
just think, you have a excuse to get a tattoo on your lower back. Do not tell dad I said that.
Give love,
