an update TO THE update

The doctors and I agree she has been stable for long enough now on only PO pain medications, and is taking in enough to eat (fluids are questionable) to go home.  There will be no transfer today to Lurie's in Chicago.  We get to sleep in our own beds tonight.  And I am planning on having some girls over for wine and pedicures.

But first she will get a unit of blood; her Hgb is down to 8.4, and Lurie's threshold for transfusion is different than UW.  She has an appointment on Thursday at Lurie's and will have labs that day as well.

I have spoken to her new Nurse Practitioner in Chicago and I'm very comfortable so far.

Sadly we must say goodbye to Abigail's primary nurse, Jenny.

I am oddly looking forward to starting the next chapter, with our new team and our new rockstar nurses.

And of course, updates will follow.
