Mom is getting her chemo today and I think it's the R-CHOP that she was supposed to get every 21 days, but they held out until this week so she could get more strength back in rehab. She squeezed my arm with her right hand yesterday and there was some oomph in it! She really has gotten alot of her strength back in that right arm. Her left side is still noticeably weaker, but it too has improved.
They x-rayed her leg last night and found a blood clot in her left calf. So please pray for that. They are treating it with a higher dose of the anticoagulant that she was already getting as a preventative measure. Due to that and also the chemo, she is on bed rest today so she gets a break from the rehab.
The special account we have setup for her will be up and running after lunchtime today. Again, it will be at Regions Bank and you should be able to access it by simply giving mom's name to the teller and letting them know its a special account for donations. Pat, her sister, and I will be the signers on it if they still need more information to locate the account. Also, paypal is still an option. If you have any questions, you can email me at lindseyckirk@gmail.com with anything related to mom and her illness or anything at all.
Thanks for checking in with us. :)
