Mom has been admitted back to Montgomery Regional Hospital. The latest round of chemo hammered her pretty hard, and she was sick to her stomach for several days last week. Because she could not keep anything down, she became very dehydrated and weak. She was admitted yesterday, and will be in the hospital until either late today or tomorrow.
Her treatments are to get fluids and red blood cells, both of which should give her more strength. Her white count looks good, and other than a slight fever last night she is doing ok. Her physicians are monitoring a small blood clot in her leg, and she is receiving anti-biotics (which she was on before going back to the hospital). She also has some pain in her abdomen, either due to her recovering wound or from getting sick to her stomach (or a combination thereof).
Her spirits are good, and they are managing her symptoms well. More updates later.
