It's Sunday. I got in here to see Anne around 9:45am. I want to thank Bobby and Deanna for coming in last night between 5 and 7pm. It helped us out alot, I got home early, and I know Anne was glad to see family.
Anne is definately feeling better, still with pain tho, and not ready to go home. They haven't given any solid food yet because she hasn't passed gas yet. Positive or Negative??? HAHA
She isn't using any IV at the moment, rather they've converted her to oral pain meds. We need to be sure to keep ahead of the pain tho, by getting her the pain pills on a timed schedule. Also, they aren't concerned about dehydration at the moment, so no fluids are flowing. I'm concerned tho because her feet and ankles are swollen, but the nurses aren't too worried.
Anne was able to walk down the hall and 'around the block' today using a walker !!!
She IS getting better. I can tell she feels better without that hernia, so our prayers were answered.
We're hoping she'll stay on plan with the chemo, scheduled to start-up again on Wednesday. We may not be looking forward to it, but we know it's best to keep on schedule.
The nurse just came in and told us her potassium level is down, so, the IV will be used once again to administer some of that.
Anne is dozing in and out. She enjoys watching the Patriots game, as usual for a Sunday.
