So Pam has been home for a couple of weeks after her surgery and things have been mostly OK. She is still having some pain in her side which bothers her in the evenings, and she gets quite tired still.
Dr. T., the oncologist, has recommended that she take a bit of a break from chemotherapy for now as the cancer seems to be moving pretty slowly. The most recent blood work bears this out as the markers are down slightly. They're going to keep a close eye on those markers as well as CTs to keep track of fluid around the lungs.
Homecare finally got themselves straightened out and are coming once a week to drain the pleurex catheter for the fluid around the lung. Things are reasonably stable for now so that's good.
