Friday-Fever and Amanda


Deb needed careful assistance today as she was woozy (a medical term). Amanda flew in to check on Mom and is our first overnight guest in Arkansas.
Deb loves unusual stuffed animals. Amanda brought her a cute ostrich named Orla.


Deb had a slight fever today. Her throat is in bad shape according to Nadine. Deb is taking 'Magic Mouthwash' to treat the thrush. In order to help Deb prevent pneumonia, many of her meds will be given via an IV starting tomorrow. They drew a lot of blood today testing twice for bugs that could really hurt her while she is in weakened health.

Today Deb also had special MRIs that maybe our first indicator about how effective the chemo is being at reducing the size of the lesions.

Tomorrow starts with labs at 7:30 am. Here at UAMS there are no holidays. Treatment goes on. So, everyone have a good holiday for us!
