We are going to meet with Linda's oncologist on monday. Linda knows him from years ago when she worked in oncology at the hospital. He's generally considered number 1 in the region. Meanwhile, she still has a lot of pain and the wound where it got infected looks very nasty. She's trying to cut back her pain meds but I think we all know what happens when you wait to take them, the pain becomes that much more difficult to get under control. Anyway, I guess we won't know until after Thanksgiving what the dr's decide to do.
