Update 11/18/11

Well this week has been a fairly good week. Dialysis was discontinued this week and Mom got her dialysis catheters removed on Thursday. Her numbers continue to look good for her blood and her kidneys. They were talking about sending her to rehab at the end of the week...and then there were some fevers, which means she needed to have blood cultures drawn. Some of her blood cultures came back postive for a potential infection, so they pulled her port out today and started an antibiotic. Getting discharged to rehab is on hold until they get the infection and antibiotics sorted out.
So in the meantime, Mom will continue to do physical and occupational therapy here at IUSCC. She continues to get stronger everyday!!
Please continue to pray for her health and strength.
Thanks to all!!
