June 1

Well, mom lasted at home 2 days longer than her last chemo round.
She developed a fever yesterday and was really shaky and just felt
really sick. Merlin took her to the ER in the afternoon and she was
admitted Saturday evening. We had been at the hospital Friday
evening getting platelettes. We left the hospital at 10:00 p.m. and
mom was doing her fast walking out of the hospital. She looked and
felt pretty good. What a difference 12 hours can make. I will let you
know more in a day or two. We don't know what kind of an infection
she has developed, but they changed the antibiotic she was on at home
to something different in the hospital. They don't want me to bring
any "green drink" into the hospital so mom is going to have to try to
get all her protein and nutrition through boost, etc. She was really
enjoying the green stuff.

I'll keep you posted.
Love, Valerie
