It's out!! Thursday at 4pm I went up to the cancer center and the nurse pulled it out. Didn't look at it ... but was told it was about 12 inches long. Didn't feel anything except the blood when it came out. Nurse applied pressure for 10 minutes, then dressed it. I sat around for another 10 minutes, then a stroll around the treatment area (to check if wound seeping after a change in blood pressure), little leak so she changed the 'tape' to another kind. Had me sit for another 5 minutes, then another stroll & sit and then homeward bound by 5:15pm! It's amazing that something that put a large hole in your jugular vein didn't need to be sewed it. Vein 'seals itself' ... wow !!
Today (Friday), things going well. Planning on having a nice low key weekend.
Love to all
