I'm a very active person as well. I can understand how hard it is to be in the hospital cooped up. I brought books, school work (Iknow, how fun, right?), I watched a loooot of Spongebob, luckily there was a marathon lol. Now I do my iv's on home treatment too. I just got mine out less than 4 weeks ago and I just got it put back in yesterday. The change of weather is really making me go nuts w/ colds! Anyway, I'm like a television addict so I encourage a lot of tv watching. Visitors are always good, and a word to the wise...have them tote along some good food for you on their visits!! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0">
