An unexpected turn

Well....
Saturday afternoon Mom came down with a serious fever and chills. We took her to the hospital and they admitted her. Not exactly what we were planning. They started her on some heavy duty antibiotics and hydration. She was doing well, but the doctors couldn't figure out what was causing the fever. It is an infection of some kind-maybe in her port, or maybe internally. Anyhow, they were going to send her home tomorrow (Wednesday), but she spiked a fever and chills again this afternoon. Now she has the doctors really stumped. So, it doesn't appear she will be going home tomorrow. All her doctors are going to work together to figure out whats going on. Please be praying for her during this time in the hospital. As you can imagine, it isn't where she wants to be. She is thankful however, there is a place she can go and be treated for whatever this is. God provides for us all.
Pray that the doctors will figure this out, and a speedy recovery will follow. Also pray for strength for mom.
Katie
