It was not a good day again, we thought yesterday we had turned the corner however, that is not true. This morning started by Sherrie being very dizzy and the bad nausea was back. We waited an hour or so and I walked back to the hospital and the radiation unit to see if I could see anyone who I knew from this week. I was not able to do so and left my local cell number with a nurse in the next unit that watches the radioation wing at night. I asked that the Dr. on call phone me when he arrived.
In the mean time, I went to the ER area and found a Dr. who spoke great English and I explained our trouble. He suggested we get her to the ER and they do bloodwork and hydrate while waiting to speak to the treating DR. His name was Mark and what a Gem he was/is. He checked everything he could, he gave ger multiple bags of fluids and 2 bags of Zofran…..pretty much all for not. She continues to throw up and we will simply make a run for the USA on Tuesday morning as planned. If needed, I will take her late on Monday for more fluids but, we feel she is good to make it to America and back to the care of Dr. Bahary at Hillman.
We now learn that a few individuals have had extended nausea however, the vast majority do not. The good thing is that the Dr. again told us today that this is a good sign given the type of treatment she has been given. That make it all worth it to us if that is the case.
Keep in mind for your info that the hospital doors are locked at 8 PM and all must then enter the ER which is called ” Notfall ” .
