Lost my belly button ;)

Don't worry everything is fine. All my wounds are hearing well, but my belly button had this discharge all the time. Today I went back to the plastic surgeon, he cleaned it out and sutured it up with a drain. I was bummed that they had to put me under, but the doc said  I needed it. On the way home I threw up a couple times, but now I'm feeling ok. Friday they remove the drain and I hope the following week I can start the chemo.

Again, overall everything is ok, I'm doing better every day.

I hope you are all doing well,

Laz

    How good to hear from you--the silence was beginning to worry me!  I am so happy to hear that you are doing well overall and improving as time goes on.  I hope you recover quickly from yesterday's procedure.  May Friday go well and I hope the chemo does too.  Keep us posted when you can.  I wish you continued healing and will keep you in my prayers.

    Hi Laz,
    It is good to hear from you! I hope your recovery goes quickly and that soon you feel much better. You are doing so well! Soon, the cancer in your body will be history! I lost my belly button with my last surgery too!

    You were missed!

    I hope your wounds heal well without further complication.
