Saturday Night

I think every doctor in this institution has been in and out of my room within the last few days. There are no conclusive results and/or answers to explain everything. The indium scan showed the skin infections. It didn't show anything in my liver. If the abdominal pain is being caused by the size of my liver, it still doesn't explain why my liver got so large. That's still a mystery. They've mentioned doing a liver biopsy, but they don't really want to do anything invasive and my liver enzymes are all normal.

We were told that they consulted at least four different radiologists to try to make some sense of the MRI, to no avail. I don't really get it.

Meanwhile, I'm on IV antibiotics and antifungals. I'm getting stronger and have been walking the halls and doing my exercises.

Thank you so much to those of you who baked challah for my recovery and for your prayers and good wishes. I still believe in miracles!
