Friday & Saturday

We're in the final days of mom's stay at Northwestern. Yesterday her counts went up and were at levels good enough to go home. They plan on her leaving today or tomorrow! Unfortunately she had a slight fever through the night last night, so they are currently doing another blood test to determine if she can leave today or if they want to keep her there one more night and have her go home tomorrow. Our mom and dad are both at the hospital waiting around for the doctors to make their decision.

Either way, she's really doing great. Her throat has healed for the most part and her voice sounds much better. She's still getting used to taking the medications in pill form (rather than through her picc line) so that's giving her an upset stomach. But all in all she's doing well. We'll let you all know when we get any new info!
