We Have Internet!!!

Sorry for the lack of updates but we've had very limited Internet access. Yesterday, our friend Karen was able to get an update on the blog so you're mostly caught up. We don't know much more today.

Adrienne is running low grade fevers (99-100) but that's a big improvement over a few days ago. She has a major infection in her throat and if that doesn't improve by tomorrow night, they'll go down and take a look. Her liver numbers are up again but her MRI and ultrasound were fine. If they don't improve in a couple of days, a liver biopsy will be the next step. The doctors think it might just be due to the pneumonia so let's keep our fingers crossed.

Yesterday, we were moved from a general medical unit to the oncology unit, and it's so much better. The nurses on the other unit couldn't draw blood from Adrienne's port and they couldn't administer some meds. This is much more of what we're used to and the nurses are very, very nice. We even have a frig in the room.

Yay for Internet!! That's what gets me through our long days at MD Anderson. Good news that the fever is coming down. You will both be in our prayers! Mike and April
ps- I'm VERY impressed that you went to her class-- that's awesome! You need to tell all of the teachers to give her A's and consider this semester finished:) She deserves them!
