So my PICC line went in today. I must admit it was a little bit uncomfortable but not necessarily painful. It has been a long day and I am almost ready for bed (its only 8pm - how pathetic is that?!) The discomfort in my bicep is diminishing as the day goes on but it is aching a bit. My grown daughter who lives with me has come down with a cold so I am desperately dosing her up with my natural tonics - I dont want those germs around when I get home tomorrow! I have cooked up a huge pot of chicken soup and will feed it to her with garlic toast when she finishes work at 9pm tonight (if I can stay awake that long).

This is a question that is running through my mind.... do all of us feel the same way.... I had my last shopping trip this afternoon and found that I was freaking out whenever people around me were sniffling, coughing or otherwise displaying obvious signs of a "lurgy" of some type - which is quite normal for this time of year - but I must be automatically going in to self preservation mode! how selfish...?! I gave my hands a good scrub when I got back to my kitchen and unpacked my bags!!
