Rene slept well last night with no issues at all and she said," time for more needles!". This morning they will drain the fluid out of her lungs and abdomen in one procedure.
Good Stuff!
- Rene is now breathing without any problems!
- The fluid they drained was about one liter out from her lungs and nearly two liters from her abdomen!
- One of the M*A*S*H doctors that put her post in performed this morning's draining
- He warned her that her lungs will act "differently" when they were allowed to get air in them; she stated that differently meant that a sharp pain up the back!
- Different for her abdomen meant that she did not have anymore pressure on her pelvic area!
- Now we await the outcome of testing of the fluid to determine if there are any other complications
- Additional testing has been done on her heart also to make sure there are no additional items that could impede her chemo treatments
- She will be staying in the hospital over the weekend because they need to review the results of the fluids and the tests on her heart; better safe than sorry!
- Tomorrow she gets to finish her outpatient chemo treatment that she did not finish on Monday!
- She is very perky now, you would be to if you can now breath without any problems!
- Enjoying all the get well cards that have been mailed to her
- I was able to show her the comments posted to the blog; she is very happy and laughing!

Rene' - Kat said to tell you that she will help you find some "KOOL HIP" wigs so you won't look like an old lady. Be afraid...be very afraid...LOL She sends her love.
You are both always in our prayers.

Q: How does a radiologist change a light bulb?
A: He doesn't need to, the patients glow.
Q: What do you call a building filled with doctors, but without any nurses?
A: A Porche dealership.
A doctor was killed in a car accident. He came up to the entrance and, seeing St. Peter, demanded to be let into heanen. He said, "I have saved countless lives, eased the suffering of thousands, and healed multitudes. I insist that you open pearly gates immediately!
St. Peter looked up and replied, "Open them yourself."
A country boy goes to the doctor be cause he cannot urinate.
The doctor asks, "Do you think you need a cathiter?"
The country boy replied, "No, I'm Protestant."
A new, gorgeous nurse started working at the hospital. Two young doctors made a wager to see who could bed her first. The first doctor buttoned up his lab-coat, hung his stethoscope jauntily around his neck, adjusted his Rolex watch so it was easlily seen, and held his Mercedes keys loosely in his hand so they jingled as he struted up to the beauty. He doesn't get three words out of his mouth before she practically shouted, "If I had a dollar for every sleezy doctor who tried to date me I would be a millionaire!" She went on to berate him until he slinked away with barely a stitch of manhood left.
Then, it was the second doctors turn. He took off his lab coat and laid it aside--messed up his hair a little bit--and then walked up to the sexy nurse, leaned foward, and whispered just a few words into her ear. The nurse giggled in delight, grabbed him in a feavered embrace--kissing him passionately. She then pulled him into a nearby closet. 30 miutes later, the second doctor emerged from the closet--his cloths rumpled and lipstick smeared across his smiling face. He went up to the first doctor to collect his winnings.
The first doctor said, "How did you do that and what did you say to her!?"
The second doctor said, "I just told her I was in a Rock Band."
Rene,
I am a Klove lover and right now I amd listening to Jeremy Camp: Walk By Faith and I am thinking of you.
It is not easy to truly place yourself in God's hands but my prayer for you is that you may do just that. You are blessed! And I [hopefully along with you] am trusting that God is healing you right now.
Eugene - you too are in my prayers just as much as Rene.
Be Blessed!
Jewels
Hi Rene/Eugene. You are both are still in my prayers. You are strong and capable which I know is from our wonderful GOD. I believe if GOD brings you to it, HE will bring you through it, in his perfect timing. Hang tight. I think we should all make you some cool pretty bandanna's. Love and Blessings, Ellie
