Back in the hospital
My mom is back in the hospital. she had some blood work done on Monday at her check up appointment and the doctor called last night to tell her she needed to go straight to the ER. Her kidneys are not handling the chemo, so they needed to flush them out. She is in room 2209. They are hoping to send her home on Friday. The problem is that the oncologist will now have to come up with another plan of treatment or chemo combination. Also, it may have to be postponed some until her kidneys recover. Other than this set back, she has been doing ok. Her spirits are good she is starting to be able to eat more and the nausea gets better as each day passes from the chemo. She is very tired and takes frequent naps. She still can't stand the smell of food cooking. She is still on oxygen and hoping to get a smaller back pack type in order for traveling easier. She is getting around good at home, able to shower get herself food etc. I will keep you posted on when she gets out of the hospital . I also wanted to thank those of you who have visited with her and reached out and called her. I know it means a lot to her to have the support as it does to me.
