The one about Jay, Delays, and snow....

Here is Sheila's email from today:

Jan 21st evening

Well, they let him come home last night. We went back to the hospital today for transfusions and spinal injections. They didn't do the spinal injection since he still has a fever. There was much debate over whether or not they were going to let him go home today but they finally did. They gave him an antibiotic, potassium and platelets. Tonight his Doctor called and said his potassium was still low even after the infusions and they called in some potassium pills to a local pharmacy.

We have to go back to the hospital tomorrow and we are expecting 6 - 12 inches of snow here in Greensburg (a little less in Pittsburgh) Thank goodness I have 4-wheel drive.
We'll be 4 wheeling all the way to the hospital. The Doctor said maybe he can try to get him Sunday off so he can stay home. They rescheduled his spinal injection for Monday.

He is still very weak but using his cane to walk around a bit. It makes me feel better that he's using it since he's so weak.

The Doctor today said that they can not start the next chemo cycle until his platelets stabilize.

He still can't talk and the Doctor told him to be quiet for 2 weeks to let his vocal cords heal (yeah, right!). I keep teasing him and telling him I have Doctor's orders to tell him to shut up for two full weeks. He just gives me that dirty look that says so much. :-)

Please take care everyone and those of you in PA don't let the snow get to you.
