Dr. McCabe went in through Matt's penis and into his bladder and what we saw was nothing like the last time. Last time every thing looked so pink and healthy. This time every thing was swollen and irritated. Dr. McCabe said that this was to be expected. The stint irritated his bladder. She said that 12 hours after taking the stint out Matt would feel 50% better.
We left Dr. McCabe's office and went home to Ixonia to pick up a few things. Matt got in the house and went to the restroom right away. He then went to sit in my car and wait until I get the things I needed. Matt came back into the house almost in tears in pain. His back on the left side was really hurting him. We tried to massage it and it felt a little better. He said his pain was 10+. We put an ice pack on his sore spot and and that helped Matt's back feel a little better.
By this time it was almost 6:30pm. It was time for Matt to take another pain pill. It took Matt a little time but he sat up and took a pain pill. About 15 minutes later Matt's pain was down to a 4 and he was ready to go home to Casey.
The rest of the night Matt kept the ice pack on his back. He woke up at 3:30am and took another pain pill. Saturday morning Matt felt like a new man! He back was almost all gone and he felt great!! Dr. McCabe did give Matt a pill so he wouldn't get an infection. That seemed to give him diarrhea again. That only lasted a few days and Matt feel good. Now if he could get more than 2 to 3 hours of sleep at at time would be great!!
Tomorrow Matt starts another round of chemo. I pray that all goes well. Matt has enjoyed all this snow! He really likes his plowing people out!!
Thank you t5o every one for their continued prayers for Matt. People continue to ask what they can do for Matt. Prayers are the biggest and best way to help! I believe God will hear all our prayers. The second would maybe be a home cooked meal to fatten Matt up!!! LOL
