This has been a very looooong day. It started at 6am and we just returned home from Duke...10:25pm. Last night Mom started having pain in her side where her drain tube is. By this morning she was in intense pain and running a fever. The Dr. was called and they went in to find out what was going on. By noon they were on their way home with a diagnosis of at the drain sight and a CT scan scheduled for 7pm. Shantel had a transplant clinic visit at 9:30am which means we are up at 6am for treatments. We didn't get home until 4:45 and then we left for the CT scan and just returned home. Like I said.......loooooong day!
Mom was put on cipro, a strong antibiotic, and is feeling slightly better this evening. She is exhausted and has a Dr. appointment Monday for the CT results.
Shantel is doing very well. Her pulmonary function tests were up and they didn't hear any crackling in her lungs. They told us they have had a couple lungs available but they refused them because they weren't to their standards. I'm impressed with how picky they are.
Keep praying for them both!
