Trip to the ER

in Colorectal Cancer #1
George hasn't been feeling well lately, his color is awful and the diarrhea as bad as it can get so it was off to the ER for us on Friday morning. Stayed there all day, received a couple bags of IV fluids. It was then decided by his onc that he should be admitted. Since is blood counts are off he also received a blood transfusion. They are also testing him for C-Diff so he is in private room and you have to gown up before going in, can't even bring my purse in without putting it in a bag. Hopefully will be bringing him home today after all the tests with a game plan to get things under control.

Wish us luck.

    I hope George will get to feeling better soon and it's good he can come home.
