Hi there
I hope all is well and good in your world, I thought i would post an update on my mum's condition as i have had such tremendous support from my fu-friends.
Mum is out of hospital as of this morning (sat July 5th), i actually get a 'day off' as my sister is spending the entire day and most of the evening with mum.
The doctors have given mum some tablets to clear the fluid from her lungs and rest of body so it makes the 'work' easier for her heart.She will have to live with the left-sided failure as they said there isn't much they can do for it.
Her chest infection has cleared up thanks to the bombardment of oral and IV antibiotics and she has been on (and has one to use at home) a nebuliser 4 times a day to help 'open' her airways.
The doctors decided that her only chance to beat this cancer is to continue with the chemo so as her infection had gone and her cough had cleared they gave her the liquid chemo Thursday and she will have the tablet form on Tuesday 9th July. Then she will have a week with no treatment and then it starts over with the liquid chemo and overnight stay in hospital followed by the tablets the next week then a week off and so on.
So mum is still fighting and still trying to remain positive even though she's been very ill.
I have passed on all your well wishes and prayers and she and i would like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Thank you so much for caring.
Love
Linda xx
