Does Dyson make a mucus vacuum?

I’m writing this as I do my vest because I’m so tired and I know that I’m just gonna pass out after. Another annoying thing about the hospital: even if you wanted to go to bed early, you can’t because a chest therapy is due at 10. So early for me is about 10:45. 

Tomorrow I am getting a bronchoscopy. They basically stick a little camera and vacuum-like tube down my throat and into my airways. They take a look around and suck some of the mucus out, which they then send off to the labs to determine the bugs I’ve got livin’ down there. We’ve had them done once before, and Logan got one at the beginning of this stay. They avoided doing one on me because of the pneumo, but they really, really, want a sample of the mucus from the dark, scary corners of my lungs. That stuff is harder to cough up so a bronch is the best way to get it. 

Since I will be going under anesthesia for my procedure at 12 tomorrow, I will be NPO (for all you normal people out there: not allowed to eat or drink) at 4 AM. The worst is not being able to drink. You don’t realize how thirsty you get until you aren’t allowed to drink. I swear, they just like to torture us. 😉

Good news: I will be going home on Friday.

Bad news: Logan gets to go home on Thursday, which means I will have to suffer alone for like a whole 12 hours. Lucky duck. Logan would argue that I don’t talk to her when she’s here anyway, but that’s a total lie. I often ask her to lower the blinds or get me food. I don’t really understand what more she wants from me.
