Isabel

Isabel was admitted on Sunday due to fever and not feeling well. She had some transfusions, and they ran tests, confirming that she had a blood contaminant. They have postponed her 5 day treatment until next week- if her counts are high enough. She is hopefully coming home tonight with IV antibiotics for the next few days. They did CT & MRI scans today. They are using these to determine when to start and how long they will be doing radiation. They will do radiation and chemo in conjunction with each other this time. Unlike last time, when she had a break from chemo to do the radiation. She will soon be having some teeth pulled (4), due to having a small mouth. This will be in addition to the previous 4 teeth pulled. They are also going to preform a small surgery in order to preserve her childbearing ability. This will be a long few months for Isabel and her family.
