I have a 21 yr old tabby cat named Crashman. He has brain damage and now also has dementia. So at 230am like clockwork when I go pee, I put him in his litter box and he wees too. Last night he was needy and nibbled my chin if I stopped petting him while he was curled up against my chest during undercover kitty. I thought maybe this was it.. so I just pet him all night.
so... sleepless this run was and a bit tired. I am happy because I was able to do it! No watch as I knew I was slow so I was happy to just hear the birds, run with Scouters and the Mr. and have it be that. No swimming today as the crik in my neck from being in a bad position all night, hurts!
Went to the doc- against my chest wall down deep there is a hematoma. It will form into scar tissue eventually. It is about the size of a golf ball and that is what I feel hurting me doing just about anything, exercise or not. It is so deep they would rather not surgically remove it and well- could get more hematomas just from doing that. They looked surprised that I have been running, swimming and biking. One of the techs said she would have just been in bed all day. Yah well you know what... I don't have fucking Cancer soo... I am out there. Bottom line is I will just have to do what I can and deal with the pain level. Manage it after with hot packs or cold packs- whatever feels better to me. I am not a pill popper but they did give me some big drugs. Maybe on a day off LOL... They said it could take up to 6-9 months for it to fully become scar tissue and after it becomes scar tissue it still might hurt- they aren't sure. Oh it makes me really want to just cut these mfkers off.
so... onto another day! Suck it up BUTTERCUP :) yes... I am one with the butter cup... and.....
Thinking to name the hematoma Haggis. I figure if it is going to be with me for a while- might as well name the sun'o'bitch so I can tell him to shut up. and YES it is a male! lol.
p.s.s the crashman still lives that little bugger!
p.s.s.s. no more sterotactic biopsies for me, I'm drivin!
1. You are strong, able and fucking amazing.
2. I lucked out the day you friended me
3. As long as it is a vegan haggis :)
4. Yay for Crashman!

So, you were right. Stupid doctors!! Great news that Crashman lives. Great news that you got a run in. Great news that you share this with us and let us help you along. Hang in there!! Oh, and I agree with Tracy's first 2 points :)

Glad that the pain will eventually dissipate (hopefully sooner than later!). You are one tough cookie! Nothing can stop you! So, good work on getting out there & putting in the miles. Who cares about pace because you are totally crushing the nurse that would have stayed in bed! hehe...
You are such a good person and a good mom to your furry friends. :) Ice/heat up & have a great day!

Oh god, haggis?! Well. Appropriate enough. Minimize that bounce, or you'll just bleed out more and prolong the agony. But yeah - you're alive, so live! Also, I lost my kitty last year to dementia... poor Crashman. Give him an extra snuggle for me.

Chanie... not much sadder than kitty dementia- but if i make him pee at 230 every night he usually just goes right back to sleep so it was odd to me he was so needy!

Holy shit you are amazing! Pushing through pain, running, swimming and cycling your ass off, taking such care of Crashman. You will get through this and onto that triathlon. Haggis is on his way out...show him the door! You are inspiration. I'm also with Tracy's post!

Next to tough in the dictionary, there is a picture of you, lady. May you continue to kick ass until there literally is no ass to kick. High-fives and hugs all around for being the person you are.

Wow, as a new friend I can see you've certainly had a lot going on in your life. I'm very happy to have you on my list as I love the strength you radiate. Hell yeah on getting out there and running instead of sitting around inside focusing on the medical issue! As for your kitty, this touched my heart. What a sweet kitty mom you are. He's got a lot of love in his life :) I think Haggis is nasty and may be fitting for the scar!
