This morning Mom received wonderful news. Her cat scans all came back negative. Also, the bumps that had surfaced the past few days began to decrease in size. We will be informed tomorrow if the Doctors want to follow up with any further tests regarding to the bumps. Mom received several IV's of antibiotics, an IV of blood. This evening she had her Neupogen Injection and lots of attention from all the staff. It is wonderful to see so many of the staff caring for Mom as their own Mom or Gramma.
All day, Mom was in a good mood though she exhibited limited energy. She had a strong appetite for all three meals. Mom walked several times in the day with me. Each walk was only a few minutes in result of being winded quickly. It was adorable to see Mom and Poppie walk around the Nurses station holding hands this evening. Poppie was as red as young man on his first date. It was so cute to hear the staff comment with endearing statements and see the beaming smiles as Mom and Poppie continued to circle around the station.
Mom started to doze on and off starting around 7:30pm. Brian, Poppie and I gave Mom a kiss and said we would see her tomorrow. Mom quickly grabbed her face mask, wrapped her shawl around herself and walked the three of us down the hallway towards the elevators. This is a routine for Mom when we leave and she is feeling up to it.
Well, we all pray that tomorrow brings only good news and Mom continues to gain her strength.
Sleep well,
Karen
