March 29 - Some Updates

So not coming home today. I had a facetime call with her when her surgeon was visiting so that he could check in. For the most part everything is progressing mostly normally. He is a little concerned that her white blood cell count is still high, and she has a low-grade fever. He’s ordered a CT scan tonight (just to be safe) so we won’t know the results probably until tomorrow, plus another blood test.

I talked to her little later and she did pass a positive one milestone that indicates things are moving forward. She also has pain (in shoulders and neck) from the gas they inflated her body cavity is slowly working its way out (probably nitrogen?). She also was very dehydrated and that could be the reason for the low grade fever, so they have her hooked up to two bags of fluids.

Stay tuned.
