Update June 22, Monday 9:08 PM
Hello; Linda spent the day in bed with the exception of a short walk early in the morning. Work on the infection, fatigue from not sleeping well last night and discomfort from lower GI issues ( the result of pain meds ) contributed to her discomfort. She is receiving help for this issue right now and we trust that the treatment will bring her relief. All other signs are good. Her white blood cell count is down, no sign of clots and she is taking fewer pain meds. The rapid and positive response to the meds for infection was a great relief as we were concerned that the infection might be stubborn. We expect to be here for a few more days. No exact time for release is yet specified, but, if things go as they currently are, we hope to be out in two to three days. The hospital staff want her off all IV meds and able to get around with greater independence before they release her. So, that is all for now. Everyone, thanks, for your kind concern and wonderful notes. John
