The nausea medication they gave him yesterday has not proven successful as the food he has had did not stay down. This is discouraging as we were hoping the food would settle in nicely via the tube and give him more strength. We're hopeful as the days pass Dad may be able to get some sort of nutrition.
The fluid around his stomach has also increased again today and they are testing it to see what's going on. We need to be patient and wait to hear from the doctors as to some of these tests.
On a good note, Dad's counts are back up again today. He's back to 5.1 for the white blood cells and the others are still high enough that he doesn't need a blood transfusion.
Thank you all for your prayers; please also pray for Mom as these days of uncertainty can be emotionally draining for her.
