Monday at Noon

Mary has been pretty much out of it today.  She does respond at times but immediately falls asleep again. She is definitely starting to bloat in her extremities and she has gained about 17 lbs (7.5kg) since she checked in here three days ago.  


The ultrasound was done and there is a big X on Mary's abdomen and now we are waiting for the drain team.  Apparently, this procedure can be done in the room.  I was able to watch the screen while the tech ran the ultrasound and there is lots of fluid in big collections all over her abdomen.  He picked a place below the bikini line--um, yeah, right. I don't think that is important!  


All in all, a quiet morning.
