One Rough Night

April 14th, 2015

Thanks dear friends for checking in on my Sweetheart Karen. It has been a very difficult twenty-four hour period of time for her.  Overnight she became very nauseated and the pain in her joints became really great. Do you find it more difficult to be sick in the night? We surely do. Finally at about 1:45 she was able to hold a portion of a Popsicle down.  Dosing off and on for the next couple of hours would be the best she would do over night.

Today is a little better. She has been able to eat a tiny bit and hopefully tonight will continue to be better. She is still taking the anti-nausea medication and is doing her best to keep hydrated along with taking a little bit food. She has lost five pounds in the last two days. I told her that this is no way to lose weight!

Thanks to our friends and family who have encouraged us about her getting the port. Our vascular surgeon will operate a week from today and get this under her skin in the upper right side of her chest. We truly appreciate your prayers as we continue to lean heavily on the Lord. The Lord has been very good to us.
