Lois asked me to make a post. She is still very very weak, but shows small signs of improving - in terms of her breathing, almost no more fevers, C02 levels, and other medical mumbo-jumbos.

We are still waiting for biopsy results of something they saw on the CT of her chest - we are hoping it is just an lymph node which had become enlarged by the infection, and not something cancerous. They took the biopsy during a bronchoscopy last Tuesday.

She has a strong will to live, I think, even though she is very scared now. Her mother and myself are here around the clock; a mattress has been provided for us, and we sleep in shifts.

I hope she will have the energy herself to make the next post in the near future. (Although wifi on her floor is poor, so it might have to wait until she has the energy to go downstairs.)
