Still Thursday 18 March but feels like another day . We received a call from our Dr. Stefan to take Vanya in for blood tests and to get some more pills to deal with her tummy and headaches .
She thinks its the chemo from the lumbar punch they did last Monday but wants to ensure that the blood count is ok prior to the Broviac pipe {or Hickman catheter} is inserted into her chest tomorrow .
Vanya does not want to eat or drink anything yet today so the pills which are meant to stimulate her appetite has not kicked in yet .
We need her to eat well today as she may not have any food or liquid from midnight tonight as prep for the operation tomorrow .
Still busy finalising the medical aid pre-authorisations due to confusion with the transfer between hospitals and the short notice for the operation at 8AM tomorrow .
So , for now it's off to Sharon the wonderful nurse at the hospital for bloods and medication .
