At a routine Friday morning chemotherapy treatment yesterday the new port was determined to be infected. This would be very rare, according to the surgeon who checked it last night.
Ed had the chemo through a vein in his arm , not optimal, but the way it used to be done.
The surgeon wasn't convinced that the port was infected. Everyone else was.
This morning two surgeons came in to examine him and they both want to wait until the blood tests results are definitive.
Yes, Ed was prepared for surgery. He had to be admitted to the hospital pro forma with this type of concern.
We are here for an undetermined time.
I was told that having a bag packed for the hospital at all times is smart. Guess so.
Margaret supplied us last night...so we're set for now.
