Infection update

So Mom has been fighting this fever since Saturday morning. I talked with Dad this morning early and he said they had not been able to get it under control and that we won't know more about where the infection came from until tomorrow.
After church this morning I called back and he said that the fever had broken and they THINK that the infection is from a meal they had on Friday night - take out. Dr. Lee was very emphatic that they do NOT eat out or have meals brought in for the first two weeks after treatment from now on. She will need to have all meals cooked at the house and no veggies/fruit/flowers start as soon as she leaves the hospital after chemo.

I talked with Mom tonight about 9 and she said the fever is back. She got the chills right after Dad left late afternoon and they haven't been able to get it under control again. She is not sounding very good at all...very shaky and weak. So I guess for now, we just have to wait and leave it in the hands of God and the doctors to help her get through this.
