Well in my understanding you had lymphnodes removed and as with Ron everytime he sleeps on whatever side because of the lymphnode removal he swells up during the night because all the fluids rest there and have no place to go, he looks like the elephant man every morning when he first wakes up and within an hour or 2 the swelling goes away and he looks fine again. And boy when I got on FB last night THERE YOU WERE first picture to show up looking "bright eyed and bushy tailed" and I smiled! I showed Ron your picture too, sorry didn't write anything, I had just gone on and he came up to talk to me and I had to shut down he hates when I am on there thinks I have a boyfriend or something the goofball I told him ya, I can't keep them off me! lol But you look fantastic and I soooo love your fighting attitude. Ron said if he can make it you can do it too, he's made it thru 3 bouts of the C. He's like a fricken cat with 9 lives thank God, I don't know exactly how many he has left cuz he used quite a few of them in his younger years let me tell ya he's got some stories! You get some rest, get that scan done and when you find out what's up get the gloves on ready to kick some "arse" as they say down under I think it is? Is that OK Christine?
Hugs to you and to your momma too!! Cuz I'm a mom of a 28 yr old son born the same day you were! AND VIRGO'S ROCK!
