Nightly News

A couple more tests last night and today have not yet defined her shortness of breath and weakened condition. The doctor is waiting on the results of one of the heart tests completed today with focus on possible fluid build up around the heart and heart / oxygen related issues. The doctor is committed to keeping her until he finds the problem and solution. He just cannot pinpoint at this time. We have 100% confidence in him but frustrating to Joy that she does not feel better.

Although she recently had a bronc biopsy, the doctor will complete another tomorrow with hopes of discovery.

Steve B., enjoy your game Saturday. I doubt seriously if Joy will feel like watching unless she improves drastically.

Hello again,
We're still pulling for Joy to feel better. Even if she doesn't see the game, I imagine she'll enjoy the final score. Hope your doctor is able to figure everything out soon. Joy deserves some rest and I'll bet you do too Wayne.
Love to all,
Steve & Trina

Dear Wayne
Thank you for posting a daily update on Joy's condition during this hospitalization. We know it is hard to do after spending most of the day at the hospital. Maybe Joy will start feeling better after the stomach surgery when she can start to eat real food. It will take awhile to build up to a steak or some other favorite food.
Give Joy our love and tell her we and hundreds of other people are praying for her.
Keep your spirits up and don't forget to take care of yourself.
Love
Kitty and Bill
