Well, the port is still giving Denny trouble. It is still leaking reddish tinted fluid; enough to soak through the bandage and stain his shirt. "Let nature take it's course" is not an option. I called back to the docs in St. Louis to give them this report. They were not happy with Vanderbilt at all. As a result, Denny and I will be headed to St. Louis tomorrow. He will be seen by an interventional radiologist at the Center for Advanced Medicine on Wednesday at 1pm. That doctor will make a determination if the port needs to come out and be re-done. If that is the case, they will have to schedule a surgery. I'm not sure if we will be able to get back home by Wednesday. So, here we go again!
We also wanted to thank our neighbors, The Stahl family, for the beautiful quilt they gave Denny that is part of the quilting ministry at Gladeville Baptist church. It will go wonderfully with the prayer shawl creatively made by the "knitwits" ministry at our church, Gladeville Methodist. It is hard to feel sad when surrounded by so much encouragement. Thank you so much!
As usual, I will post updates to this blog as soon as they come available. Thanks for checking in.
