Dr, appointment results

Mom and Dad went to Seattle today for Mom's scan and follow up appointment.

She started feeling nauseous again last night and was back to throwing up as well. It was an uncomfortable trip up on the bumpy roads but they got up there and Mom had her scan first followed by seeing Dr. Mulligan.

He removed her sutures and put the little steri strips in their place.
She was really feeling sick and he got her a anti nausea med that dissolves under the tongue. He wrote her some new prescriptions for anti nausea patches and disolvable meds as well.

He told them that the scans did not show new growth and the lung margins appear clear. He did tell then that there could be microscopic cancer cells unseen to the naked eye, but today is not the day to worry about that. Today we celebrate that everything looked good and she is healing well. She will see Dr. Mulligan again in a month and her Oncologist Dr. Rodler in 2 months.

The ride home was tough again, but I am sure she went home and took a good long nap.

I am so glad the stitches are out now. Please continue to pray for the nausea to come under control and keep the pain down as well.

We love and appreciate your prayers. Please feel free to post, call or write. If Mom can't talk she will not answer the phone or Dad will just let you know that she is not able to at the time. She may talk for just a few minutes and then have to rest, but just know she appreciates you so very much.

Blessings,
Kimberly and family
