Neal is down 6 pounds which was expected since most of his weight was from fluid retention. The swelling in his feet is going down. His TPN (liquid nutrition) is stepping down as well as his prednisone. His numbers were still pretty good today but the cough is still lingering. After we got home from the doctors today the visiting nurse came out to change Neal’s line in his port. She recommended juicing to help Neal get “good” nutrition. I found one way back in one of my cupboards from years past. I ran to the grocery store and we put it to the test tonight. Not bad!
We go back to U of Chicago on Friday. Neal will have a CT scan and see the doctor.
On the journey,
Trish
