Tuesday, Oct. 3rd
Well thank you all for your lovely comments I've printed them off and will read them to Meghan. Everyone's support is just amazing!
Meghan is currently having her bone scan done as we speak and it will take about 1 1/2 hours to do. Her heart rate is gone up to about 64 and her blood pressure is improving with medication. Her electrolytes are also improving with calcium and phosophate medication. They haven't booked the LP which is the 4th dose of chemo yet as they need her heart rate to be a bit more stable. They are scheduling an ECG everyday until her heart is regular because she has a bit of an irregular heart beat still. They have been coming in the middle of the night to do the ECG, 2:30 a.m. last night but they will hopefully now be doing it during the day. Her swelling has not gone down yet but that will take awhile and hopefully with the chemo that will help too.
She was mad at me this morning for eating a few of her timbits that Joe bought her last night so we know she's starting to feel better. She's getting her sense of humour back and hopefully that's a sign of feeling better. She hasn't been out of bed since Friday because they've been coming in all night long and it's just wearing her out in the day. We talked about getting up today for a walk down the hall, but she's hooked up to so many things that it really makes it difficult, that and the swelling.
I miss you all and hope to see you all soon.
Love
Michelle & Meghan
