Lucy's procedures went fine yesterday. She was a real trooper. He found a lot of inflammation in her stomach and esophagus, so he took some blood and some tissue for a biopsy to check for a number of things. Hopefully we will know soon. She is still vacillating between feeling okay and doubled over in pain.
My mom is not recovering as well as we were hoping. Her spleen isn't going to make it, so now they are waiting to find out if she will have to have surgery to have it removed or if it will reabsorb into her body without further complication. She has some fluid on her lungs and a high fever, so they are worried about pneumonia. We are all praying for a speedy recovery from all of this. She is longing to be home before Thanksgiving, but if she can't, we are bringing dinner to her!
