Day 43 at Cancer Treatment Centers of America

Wednesday, July 2nd 2014


This morning was the first morning waking up in Cancer Treatment Centers of America.

Mom didn't sleep much the night before . The nurses had to change the bedding during the night because mom continued to bleed out of her nose and mouth. She spent the day hooked up to continuous fluids and and had a Chest X-ray performed in her room . She was taken down at 10:30 a.m. for a CT scan but her mouth was too sore and scabbed over so it was rescheduled for a week from now.


She spent the day resting on and off. They gave her another two units of blood and also units of platelets.  Her white blood cells are low now and her red blood cells are reading in the normal range.


You can tell mom fights sleep when anyone is around so I decided to stay late by her side but to drive home before bedtime so she could get some rest.

The Charm of the Day
