Pincushion!
I'm so sick of being a pin cushion. After the last 2 days of pre-op testing, I am totally over nurses and needles. 2 IV's and it took 5 tries to get them started. I know when I'm in the hospital that I will be a pincushion again, but I just pray they give me time to heal from this go round. My poor right hand is still so sore from the first IV attempt yesterday and it is a lovely shade of purple too. I just love bruises. Thanks for letting me vent.

DORTHEA-vent away, girl-it's part of what we are here for!
Hang in there-I bet it gets better!
I used to be a "vein-less wonder". They had to get blood from between my toes..seriously...now they can spear chunk an arm vein, from 10 paces (well, almost)..Who knew there were veins under that fat?
Look at those bruises as your "battle wounds"-as your scars will be, in the future-well deserved battle wounds-for a WAR you will WIN !
