In pictures, here is what my hand has done over the last three weeks. This is all the result of having blood drawn from one of the veins in my hand for a routine test. It formed a clot and for whatever reason, the clot didn't dissolve. Over time, the bacteria introduced by the blood draw multiplied and formed an abcess inside the vein. They then spread to surrounding tissue, including my skin. Officially, it is septic thrombophlebitis. The two pictures that are NOT of my hand mark the start of each hospitalization. One showing the three IV bags and PCA meds I had, one showing the goofiness of my doctor and his and my mutual friend.
The pictures are low quality because they are all from my cell phone.
This post is brought to you in response to some requests I've gotten.
I am a Christian. I am a wife. I am a daughter. I am a friend. I have babies in heaven. I take pictures. Love to write. I strive to show compassion.
Derek is also a Christian. He is a husband - to me. An amazing husband. He loves intensely. Laughs freely. He is strong. I am amazed when I consider that he chose ME. I love him. He loves me.
This is my Gramma. Eileen. Of everyone I have ever known, she is the one I desire to be like. She was wildly compassionate. Generous. A woman of integrity. Goofy. Cute. My hero. She is in Heaven.
Bayleigh is intense. She is small. She is beautiful. Sweet. Wild. Mischevious without limits. And she chirps.
Furbis is the epitome of catness. He is handsome. Big. Sweet. Dangerously intelligent. Strong. He breaks things. And talks.
Calliah is special. Furbis chose her. She is sweet. Not very smart. Funny. Pretty. Puts her toys in water. And the more she loves you, the harder she bites.
Izzy is super sweet. She's pretty. Passionate about playing. She licks things. She doesn't talk much. Snuggles a lot. And sleeps on my head.

Is it an allergy or what?
