The Burden of Control – Chapter 10
Bette: I’ll try.
Dr. Harris: Are we doing ok?
Bette: We? Well I’m just
sitting here. I hope YOU’RE doing ok
Dr Harris: (laughs) Yes,
Bette. Everything is going the way it should. Don’t worry, I’ve done many of
these procedures and haven’t lost a patient doing one yet.
Dr. Harris picked up the
hollowed needle and gently inserted it into Bette’s back, directing it to
pierce the posterior Illium, the back of the flared end of her hip bone. The needle is somewhat wider than the one
used for the aspiration and she is forced to exert a bit more pressure. Bette inhaled sharply as she experienced a
brief, but intense pain shooting from her back down her legs.
Dr. Harris: Pain?
Bette: Yes. Isis it supposed
to hurt?
Dr. Harris: Everyone is
different. Some feel more pain than others. There’s really no way to anesthetize
inside the bone, so it’s really a matter of pain tolerance. (pauses) Ok, the
needle is in position. I’m going to collect the sample now. It shouldn’t take
more than a minute.
Dr. Harris carefully
maneuvers the needle, conscious of the discomfort that the action is causing
her patient. Satisfied that she has obtained a large enough sample for
analysis, Dr. Harris slowly withdraws the needle and places pressure over the
ejection site. After the bleeding slows,
she carefully bandages the area and lifts the waistband of Bette’s underwear
back into position. Giving Bette a brief squeeze on the arm to let her know
that the procedure was complete, she walks around the table.
Dr. Harris: Ok, Bette. I was
able to successfully aspirate and biopsy the marrow from your hip. I’ll need
you to lay here for the next ten minutes as standard procedure. (pauses) You
might feel some pain or discomfort in and around the area for the next few
days. This is perfectly normal and you can take Advil or Motrin as needed. If you
experience any swelling after the next 48 hours, give my office a call. While
allergic reactions are rare, they do occur and I’d like to see you as soon as
possible if you feel that you’re having one.
The area is likely to bruise, so don’t be too alarmed tomorrow if you
wake up and a good portion of your back is black and blue. They tend to last a
while as well. (pauses) Do you have any questions for me?

tibette my computer just crash on me,so i didnt get the chance to comment on your last chapter. i am so happy that you’re not writing bette they way i.c.wrote her. she took almost all of the thing i like most about her away. her strengh,her playful side and turn her into something pitiful.i hope you dont do this our bette in your story. i like another writer on this board [LASTKID] you and she both have the same writing style. tibette dont worry about people not reading this story because its one of the best written story on this board. they have a neww way of keeping count of the readers now. if i was to read this chapter 2 or even 6 times, it would still only count as 1 time. it seem if you go over at least 200 her story has been read by plenty of people. if bette do or dont have cancer, just please let her talk to tina about it. ooo i forgot to say ‘great chapter.
