Back from ER

I just got back from the ER and mom is doing well. They do not believe she has had a heart attack and they have checked for clots in her lungs... all clear! She had very high blood pressure and she was in considerable pain for a while because her pain meds wore off and the pain from her cancer was quite bad. They've given her pain meds and have gotten her blood pressure back down. They've kept her overnight for observation, but we're hopeful she'll be able to come home tomorrow.

I have to thank the Lord for the care she received at Hoag. The doctors and nurses and techs were all so nice. Even when they got very busy in the ER, they were smiling and courteous and so caring!!

It seems that the pain from the chemo embolization is also subsiding. Before the chest pain today, she was really starting to feel better.

Thank you all for your prayers and concern.
