Yet another Update

Well 5-6, actually turned into 7:30 for the dermatology biopsy. The biopsy is done and we don't expect to get results anytime soon. Probably sometime next week, They may get some preliminary results in 24 hours and 48 hours. We got a visit from Dr. Griffiths tonight. She ordered a head CT just as a precaution, since last time Trish was in the hospital she hit her head. I know I held her head right this time and she didn't hit it, but it couldn't hurt to get a good look.

Funny thing, last Saturday 5C cleared her of the non-existent virus, but today, 5A says she wasn't cleared and we are back to wearing gowns and gloves and masks.

A note to everyone who sent cards this week. I was able to go over to 5C and pick up Trish's mail and insure that they know where she is at. Still I would not send anything new up yet or if you do, send it to Aunt Mary's house. Once we know where we will be for more than a day or two we will update you.

I have been posting Trish's counts each day, to check that out go to "The Counts" page link is on the left hand column under "Other Links".

On the blood counts, the chemo Trish had is notorious for a long recovery (nadal) period. It could take up to day 40 for her counts to recover. Until they do she will either be an inpatient or staying across the street from the hospital. And given that fact and what happened this week, I will not leave her alone unless she is an inpaitient. I am just thankful that I can work from here.

Well I will update the site again tomorrow. At this point we don't know how long she will be in the hospital, but knowing she is in good hands I slept well last night and hope for the same tonight.
