Abscess, Cyst, Pus...The oncologist was not happy to hear about Rene's lump and quickly determined that it is some type of abscess that will be drained. Her lump is in her lower right butt cheek! Later this week she will go to the hospital to get a scan and drain done on this growth. We are both relieved to know that is NOT linked to her lymphoma.
Due to its location on her body, she is not happy about the discomfort she will have from the procedure. Since her girlfriend is arriving today and they usually banter; she can deal with Rene on this one and take all associated bullets. I am sharing the "love" with her and both them will let me have it in spades either way!
Mobility
She is getting better at moving about with her walker each day; she doesn't need my assistance to get in or out of bed. Still needs it to get off the sofa and certain chairs however. The animals are getting use the walker and she can play with them when she walks around the house.
Today she did something usual, she went into the kitchen with her walker, raided the refridgerator and sat down. She was a bit defiant about it so I know her attitude is strong and one day soon she will really let me have it! Until then, I can somewhat control and convince her to do things MY way...this to will past!
