Melissa came home Monday March 21. She came home with her PICC line in. She is taking one IV antibiotic and two oral antibiotics. She also has in the wound drain that she has to keep track of what is coming out. She has finished all meds as of Saturday. She gets tired very easily but is trying to gradually increase her activity. It was a major accomplishment for her to put away a stack of t-shirts.

She went to see the surgeon today and he was pleased with how she was doing. Just a few hours later she is running a slight fever. The home health nurse comes tomorrow to check on her and to change the dressing on the PICC line. That has to be done once a week. She was definitely exhausted today. We left a 9 to get her breakfast and be at the hospital by 10:30. She didn't see the doctor until 2:00. Then we ate lunch and shopped at Wally world. She finally just had to go sit in the car and let me finish.

Continue to remember her in prayers. She still has a ways to go.
