Quick Beth Update - June 20th

Beth was admitted into the ER last night.  She could not stop vomiting and she had not been able to eat or drink anything for 2 days.  The cancer in her liver is causing her to feel sick and she making her vomit.  She has not been able to take any pain meds (or her Chemo pills) because anytime she drinks anything she throws up.

They got her pain and nausea somewhat under control now that she is in the ER.  


Another problem is Beth has had a very bad cough. Later today they are going to perform a bronchoscopy.  Bronchoscopy is a procedure that allows doctors to look at the airway through a thin viewing instrument called a bronchoscope.  The are looking for the tumors in her Bronchial tubes and they will attempt to freeze them off. That will hopefully alleviate her cough.


We are hoping to be able to come home tonight.
