Illness in the Family (NaBloPoMo Post #8/Day 7)
My cousin was admitted to the hospital last week. I was told it was due to pneumonia. A few days later, I was told that he wasn't responding to antibiotics and that they were going to do several tests to look for the source of his infection.
Among the tests was an ultrasound which showed several abnormalities in the liver and in the region of the pancreatic head.
He was transferred to a bigger hospital and underwent a CT scan earlier today. I just spoke to his brother over the phone. I asked him to read the results of the CT scan to me. It is definitely cancer with concomitant pneumonia. The biopsy will be done tomorrow, My differentials are lymphoma or pancreatic cancer.
I hope I am wrong.
Please pray for his recovery.
