Hospital update

I called the hospital this morning, and talked to mom. She said the Dr. had been in and told her that he wanted to do another CT scan today. She is not sure how she will get the contrast down, but she hopes they will have a remedy for that. Her blockage is caused by an over abundance of calcium in her system, which is caused by the cancer. He suggests that she consider doing Chemo because this calcium problem will only continue and she will continue to be in and out of the hospital if she doesn’t do the chemo. Her appt to decide on the chemo will be on Jan 11th.

Dad said that she can stand up on her own today which is an improvement over yesterday.

She is very easily winded, so talking is difficult. Dad is there, so you can talk to him if you want to call. I’m sure they would appreciate the thought.
