We got the results and the tumors grew "mildly" as they put it. Originally they doubled in size in 10 days so I was nervous about the results. Two of them grew larger, two stayed the same. And she has some swollen lymph nodes in the abdomen and one on top of the blood supply to the colon. She's been complaining of pain since her surgery and they said it was normal...at one point they wanted us to think it was mental. Or that she had some sort of a mental block. Or that she was so used to pain meds, her body was still under the impression she had pain. Just makes me so mad that they didn't do more sooner. I know it wouldn't have changed the outcome but her pain levels have weakened her more and didn't allow her to focus on physical therapy. Pain meds make her tired and she sleeps a ton. So that means she misses meals, physical therapy, etc. I wrote a letter to her doctor and it was kind and respectful, but to the point. He called and expressed his sincere apology. I think he feels bad about what is happening and has happened. Nothing about her case has been normal. The fistula really threw all of us for a curve, which really started her decline. Then the surgery, another hit. Now more tumors. She tried to walk with the walker last night to the hospital door and no luck. She has zero stamina. She isn't constipated either...she has the opposite problem and doesn't even feel it coming. It can be humiliating for her. Just a waiting game now...her white blood count keeps rising, even on antibiotics. They say it can be the tumors....and since she shows no sign of infection (fevers, etc), they aren't sure what to do. Today I feel like I could just yell at anyone and everyone for no reason at all. I'm trying to keep that in check.
