Update

Well we are sitting up here with Shirley and she is doing o.k. She is finally on clear liquids. We got kind of excited about that except for the fact that she did have some nausea - so she didn't really even want them. She is trying though.

Shirley was originally scheduled for another lumbar puncture this morning. She was supposed to have a series of 3. She has had one so far. When the doctors came in this morning, they said they have decided not to do the last 2 because at this point, they couldn't really treat whatever they find. So this doctor at the hospital is going to consult with her Oncologist and decide when Shirley might be able to go home and what our next steps are. He was worried because she will have really bad bouts of pain that is not controlled by her pain pump. They have to give her extra doses. So I guess we will find out soon if or when she can just go home. We are all so ready.

I will update as soon as we find out!!!!

Love, Teresa
