Fighting an infection

Hello Family and Friends,

Jennifer started running a fever Monday morning and by the afternoon it reach 101.1, so now she is back in the hospital. They feel that she is fighting an infection in her line so she is now scheduled for surgery today to take the line out and put in a PIC line. This will hopefully give her relief from her chest pain.

Her counts also dropped on Monday, her ANC is at 60 and white cells are at .14. Her body is fighting the infection and the Doctors feel’s that this is why her counts dropped.

I will give you an update tonight.

Tim
