    Out of pocket for a bit

    I'm being admitted to the hospital tomorrow morning. I'll be having a CT scan/draining tube procedure, which basically is while taking a ton of pictures and using a permanent marker they will map my belly to let them know where they need to go in with "the needle." This time, they'll be keeping the tube in, which I'm not comfortable with, but I still think it's a good idea.

    They will drain the cyst and send out the fluid for extensive testing. The good news is that they are now NOT calling it a mass (woot!). I've had a recurrence of these cysts for a while, and they want to find out what is the root cause.

    I'll be in the hospital until Tuesday, but after that, it will all depend upon what they find. There are many different scenarios, most I don't want to think of right now. I just really want to get better and am trying to stay positive.

    I am hoping for the best, and expecting the best. If they can find the answer, then they will "fix" it and that could only be the best for me.

    In the mean time, take care of yourselves and stay safe. I'm hoping they will have wifi in hospital.

    I'm not trying to poke fun at all Moogie, so please don't take this the wrong way.

    I really wish House was a real doctor, cuz I'd rally Free-DC together and send you to him. He'd get it all figured out and fixed!

    Good Luck!

    P.S. Plus it'd make a very cool episode. I'd ask you to rock a Free-DC Tee.

    Take care Moogie! I'm sure seeing the smiles of your beautiful girls will help you through it.

    Yes...they did have WiFi. Am home now, waiting for results. Visited the board a few times but am spending my time catching up here and on my emails.

    Moogie,
    Looks like you've got the next holiday sorted out "Uncle" DP will take care of the girls, no actually that would be kinda cruel...... to "Uncle" DP :P he'd be around their collective little finger faster than you can say "Peanut butter n Jelly sandwich" not that "Uncle G" here would last much longer.
