No news is good news (so unfortunately there is news)

Kelly was hospitalized again last night.  She experienced really bad nausea all day yesterday, because she just finished a round of chemo.  Yesterday evening she had twitching in her arm (which she has had before) and then in her face (which she hasn't had).   Dad gave her the emergency seizure meds that we have for her, and called the ambulance.  The twitching had subsided a bit by the time the EMTs arrived, but she wasn't able to keep down the second dose of emergency seizure medicine.  They transported her to the hospital at around 7:00 last night.  By midnight they had admitted her to the oncology floor.  Dad was able to go in the ambulance with her, and has been at the hospital all night.

It turns out she has a lot of inflammation and fluid around the tumor right now.  Because of this inflammation, the paralysis has spread from her right arm to her right leg as well.  We are hoping this is a good sign though- if the tumor is irritated, it may be because the chemo is doing a good job killing the cancer cells. 

They have put her on slightly more seizure medication and a lot more steroids.  They seem to be having a good effect.  Even in the 2 hours since I arrived at the hospital this morning, she seems to have a bit more strength in her right leg.  As of now, they are hoping that the steroids will continue to improve her right leg and they'll be able to send her home tomorrow (Sunday).  

She is awake and doing well, although she is a bit "fuzzy"....having a bit of trouble coming up with words at times.  This may be a symptom of all the medications she is on at the hospital.

We will keep everyone updated as we know more.  Thanks for caring, praying and being in her corner as we walk through this.
