Lungs

Wednesday 11 April afternoon

The results of the scan are inconclusive for the time being. Doctors see something in her lungs but cannot decide if they are looking at the source of a bacterial infection or at mushrooms. They are contemplating giving her an antifungal as a precaution. She stays of Ceftazidim and Targocid. Her CRP (inflammation marker) was up to 18.

Lara is on Day 15 of her chemotherapy (J15 in French). How time flies, no? Tomorrow they will do a bone marrow puncture to judge how things are coming along down there.

She felt sorry I had to opt out of the Chapitre des Tulipes, but I told her to pay it no mind. We will go together next year, I said. If I have a next year, she sobbed. Stop it, was my answer, of course we will have one.
