Home & Happy
Mom sounded great when I spoke to her around noon. She's got to head in to have lab drawn tomorrow, but otherwise things are trending in the right direction! We just need to make sure she continues to produce urine and has no more pain, nausea, or vomitting. Didi is there supervising all household operations too, which is putting my heart at ease for sure!

Thanks Monica for all these updates. Obviously, we don't hear the entire picture, but from what we do hear, it does beg the questions:
Do Liz's doctors ever meet to talk about her case in a comprehensive manner or are they working solo?
You might want to request a group meeting with you and your Mom.
Just Food for thought....
With all these "ins and outs" of the hospital, your Mom must be feeling as though something is terribly wrong with her case and perhaps it's not her; maybe its the coordination (or lack thereof) of the medical providers.
In my case at Yale, they occasionally present and discuss my case at the Tumor Board which meets weekly, and my doctor gets alls the brainpower in one room assessing and recommending. I'm not there, but I get the feedback from that meeting. They are all working together to get the most positive outcome for me and to raise the odds of my beating this cancer.
I really feel bad for you Liz having to go through all this back and forth. It's like a "false start" to recovery.
In any event, I confirm what others are saying: You must be
back in good shape BEFORE starting Chemo.
Love you Liz. Hang in there.

Liz, I was in Puerto Rico the past week and a bit. While I was there, I had a dream that you, me and Monica were together - you were visiting us at school. You had completely beat the big C and we were all having a great time! It was as Moe was saying about everyone sitting around the log cabin laughing about the time you had cancer. Keep those thoughts in mind! I'm sending thoughts of strength to Lil Lefty!
Much love

Hi Liz,
Just wanted you to know that I'm keeping abreast of your progress via this great blog. I can only imagine what a roller coaster ride it's been for you, as simply observing what you're going through is filled with highs and lows. You're doing an amazing job of enduring and fighting. I'm inspired by your courage and drive.
From the sidelines with love and compassion,
Jane
