Yesterdays surgery to have port removed went well. Blood culture results after port removed came back negative and fevers have subsided,all of which is good news. However last night Erin had alot of pain in her abdominal area. We then had a xray done right in our room. In the morning still having alot of pain and stomach bloating drs wanted another xray to see if there was air in her stomach. Results being no air,which we are very thankful for as that would have meant another surgery needed. They have now stopped the feeding for today,this making Erin much more comfortable. Dr. is saying that intestines need to heal from chemo. and at that time feeding should go better,and stomach pain should subside. White blood cell counts should be rising daily with which we should see improvements in all areas.

Keep Erin in your thoughts and prayers,

Love, Lori
