Wednesday in Room 477 ;)

Whassssssupppppp....
Hi there everyone! I had a great day today...thanks to Rich and Abe, I knocked out 20 laps before 3 PM! Of course, I'm also superfast. :) I think maybe I'll get a bell or horn for my pole buddy to encourage the slower folks to get out of my way...is that inappropriate?! hahahahaha Laura also beautified my room even more with a "Julie-We Love You-Keep Fighting" banner and a poster with pics of the family. Paulina brought adorable pics of little Jack and my buddy Mogo (her dog), and they are sitting on my windowsill so I can see their cute faces whenever I want!
I forgot to write about my Hickman the other day...they do think it's infected, but the clinical specialist (whom I love!!) has changed my dressing every day, and I'm still on the Vancomycin. The redness and swelling has gone down a lot and the tenderness has all but disappeared, so I feel much better about that.
I'm gettin' kinda tired, so I'll sign off, but thanks to all my wonderful visitors today! I had a great time--it feels so weird to say "I had a great time" when I think about the fact that I'm in the hospital--but I really did!!!! I love hanging out with everyone--you make it easy to be strong.
