Michelle slept a little better last night, but still hardly at all. The nurses had to hang a new bag of antibiotics every hour, which is obviously disruptive to sleep. Her pain is under control.
We spoke with both the oncologist and the infection disease specialist and got a small update. They expect Michelle to be in the hospital at least 2 more days. It will take that long for the cultures to grow from her blood and abdominal fluid samples taken yesterday.
Her white cell count has declined a bit which may be a sign that the infection is abating somewhat. Mostly we're in a wait and see mode, while trying to keep her comfortable.
Thank you for your prayers and all the kind words we received in response to yesterday's post.
