So here's the latest update on my sister... it's BAD NEWS, GOOD NEWS, BAD NEWS, GOOD NEWS.
Monday she was scheduled for a test to see why things weren't functioning properly. Bad news: the test was inconclusive.
Tuesday she was sent for a different type of test to see if they could find anything. Good news: they were able to tell by this test that she did NOT need another surgery and that she looked great, just still swollen, so they told her to just give her body time to heal and all should be well.
Almost immediately after the receiving the good news she began to have severe pain in her left side. The pain was so bad that they sent her for more testing. Bad news: they found that she had a kidney stone! Poor thing... as if she hasn't suffered enough :-(
Wednesday brought good news!!! She got to go home! Yay!!! She still has the PIC line in her arm that gives her the majority of her nutrition, so home health care comes out to her house twice a day to check on her. But she was able to eat mashed potatoes and tomato soup today and not get sick! Yay!!!
Thanks so much for all your prayers for her. Please continue to pray that her healing continues and she will get stronger every day.
Blessings to all!
