Staples

Today marks 3 weeks since the surgery. We're going to Mobile today to see Dr. Mayer and to get my staples out. I'm really excited. They've been really bothering me all week and I'm ready for them to be gone. A couple of them have started to work their way out and they're just driving me crazy over all. They itch pretty much all the time and they sting when Dee cleans the incision, so I'm hoping that all that improves once they're out of me. I'm also interested in seeing what the incision looks like without them. I think it's going to look pretty good from what we can see at the moment.

Also, yesterday was the last day for home health to come and get my blood. Now we're going to have to get up and go to Dr. Kerr's office to have it done. I would have loved for home health to have kept coming, but insurance wouldn't reapprove them now that I can drive and we can't afford to pay to have them come so off to town we go each morning now.

Speaking of that, it's time to go and get the lab done. We'll take some pictures post-staples and let you all see the grossness :)
