Ricki has been having some severe chest pains all afternoon and into this evening. It is so difficult knowing there probably isn't anything they can do for her but seeing her in so much pain. Surely with all the medical advancements there is something that could give her relief. When she about passed out when she went to change into her pjs for the night we decided to take her to the ER because you still just never know if it might be something serious...
All her blood work came back fine, the EKG was normal but the x-ray did show some growth of the tumors in her chest... They have been watching these for awhile and unless they cause something life threatening I am afraid she is going to have to continuer to live with this pain....
Ricki's Disney quote for the day is from The Princess and the Frog....
When the nurse was working on her IV it was tricky but she did an amazing job. Ricki told her that most nurses take several attempts to get her IV in. The nurse told her to remember to tell the nurses to use her right arm in the middle and there was a deep vein. Ricki said that reminded her of a song in "The Princess and the Frog".
YOU GOT TO DIG A LiTTLE DEEPER.
- I know she was having fun joking about finding her vein for an IV but she definitely gets the award for her amazing ability to dig a little deeper.
