I just spoke to Rachel who was up at the hospital bright and early this morning! The kidney doctor came in and it is a hernia where her kidney use to be. Not surprising since she has been coughing a lot since her surgery. He is recommending surgery on it in the next day or two. The surgeon who did her gall bladder will do this one. We are now waiting on him and getting confirmation from him that this is what she should do.
The CT scan was clear for a blood clot in the lungs so that is good news!
Another note of good news - they did a CT scan of her lungs last week at the Oncologist and it shows that the sutent (chemo pill) is reducing those spots on her lungs! Yeah!
So a couple of more days in the hospital. She is up and walking around and eating normal food again, so that is progress! She is hoping to start radiation again on Monday.
Love,
Jo
