They took out my med port from my only good large vein left this morning. I was facing serious sepsis poisoning of my entire body. The only chance is if they re-use one of the old sights which is only done when no other veins are left to use and it is most often not possible or it will not last long. If I do not get a port, all my veins that can be used for regular peripheral I.V. s (The ones someone gets a poke for normally in ER or something.) will wear out over a short period of time from excessive pokes because of my veins being such a hard stick and three times a week infusion and up to three tries a time to get a successful poke. So, what happens now if neither of those recent old ports work and my veins fail is that dehydration will cause the tissues of all my body organs to deteriorate and die. This is confirmed by my Internist doc, Dr. Gregg today. Christmas morning predawn I was out to ride my bicycle 33 miles around the big beautiful lake, now I am going to slowly dehydrate to death… please talk to your higher power, God, cosmos something, guiding light that one of those two ports work.

I cried this morning to myself. Finally, I got stuff to live for. My troubled son actually went in to filled out 30 minutes worth of forms for therapy at Catholic Social Services… The money I have supported him with will be well spent… I know some of you have troubled kids also… very sad too, but a moment ago my son was sleeping out in the deserts and mountains, no car, no money, and a short stint in jail, 30 lbs under weight, and years strung out on speed etc… now he is going to therapy… on his own volition even… the only way it works… as I and a million others know to be true. Only, one defiant son left who once again has disowned me because I will not accept his brow beating of me. I would like to stick around for him. Maybe, his inheritance will bring him around that I was not bad guy… his mom was which he knows in connection with himself but I am the bigger blame for his semi failing in supporting himself and family and not being a happier person. Right.
