In addition to cancer, my sister sent me this...
"Mom is in the hospital again, this time fighting some severe abdominal pain. At first everyone thought it was her appendix, but after she convinced them that that had been removed a long time ago, they started searching for another cause (some of the younger Dr.s had to be reminded that appendix don't grow back - she had fun with that). At this point, they suspect Colitis, which is basically ulcers in your large intestine, but they haven't given that as the official diagnosis yet and therefore don't have a prescription for a solution.
The Dr.s and nurses suspect she will be in the hospital over the weekend. She is getting pain medication intraveniously. Mom has never responded to pain medication and this is no different, even with morphine, the pain remains. The Dr.s don't think that the new chemo drugs she is on are causing the abdominal pain; this is a separate problem."
Well, fucking joy.
