Update - January 3rd


Today Renee is down to very little speaking ability. Her tongue is swollen with soars making it near impossible to talk. It has also been too difficult to eat so they are discussing doing a feeding tube till she is feeling better but it is too dangerous to do now because her counts are still to low. The pneumonia is not getting better because the tumor is so big that it is not allowing anything to get out. They are planning a stint in the next couple of days which will help put oxygen back in her lung and hopefully move her towards fighting the pneumonia. This new surgeon has wonderful stats which gives us a lot of hope.
As I said before, it is difficult for her to talk so she is very appreciative of texts. Her counts are still low so visitors need to stop by the nurses station or you should call first. Please pray for her fast recovery and know that this is Renee. She has beat the crap out of cancer for almost nine years and she will do it again! Keep believing and praying for her!

With all my heart,

Audrey
