Hi everyone its Jess...My computer got a virus earlier, I had to purge my system and I lost my password and the yahoo email I provided for here on my old account I deleted months ago so...now I am back with a new name lol..

I just wanted everyone to know that I got my PICC line put in and that I am now infusing with a portable pack as I type this. It was a kind of nerve wracking procedure and its new and overwhelming to be on the TPN but I weighed in at 78 pounds today, so I know that I made the only viable decision for my health.

Thanks again so much for the supportive wishes..and side note, I think my new username rocks:) lol...thanks again Jess.

What a victory!!! Give yourself some credit and a few pats on the back. This decision was a long time in coming.

Now you will have the energy and nourishment to fight harder. Plus you will not have all that stress about eating. What a load off!!!

Congratulations! Here's to your health!!!

Thank you everyone so very much for the supportive replies. I will provide updates regularly...I am still on my first infusion, its 12 hrs long...I am really missing looking in the mirror and seeing ME ya know? I also just want to feel stronger, and I hope this will help with that...

Thank you again so much. Its nice to be supported in what has been a tough decision. Jess.
