Hi Everyone, Mom's made some good improvements the last 2 days. She's been having a bit of nausea, but has been gaining strength and isn't nearly as tired as she has been. She's been a bit discouraged that her doctors keep telling her day after day that maybe she can be released 'tomorrow' but as she says 'tomorrow never comes'. However, we REALLY think tomorrow is the day! They have removed her dialysis catheter and she is scheduled to have her picc line removed and a port put in first thing tomorrow morning. Her doctor doing the port told her she could 'go over the wall' within an hour after the procedure, implying that she'll finally be breaking out of prison tomorrow! ;) The port is needed because mom has very tiny veins and they keep collapsing :/ so this will allow her to receive her chemo and have blood drawn without being poked a million times trying to find a vein. So let's all pray that tomorrow REALLY is the day that she gets to finally come home. And a big THANKS to Yvette & Marty for coming up for the weekend and spelling Candice and I for the last 2 nights. We love you!!
