Momma Auddy's new outlook!
I spoke with Amy, the charge nurse on Mom's floor yesterday. She did some "investigating" for us and found out what really happened and how things can go from here. Dr Stefanich's office was contacted. He came to see her Wednesday evening and told her that he had prior committments and was going to be unable to perform her surgery. She wouldn't have remembered that until yesterday - and she did. Dr Lovee(?) from his practice, was busy with another surgery that afternoon/evening. Dr Stefanich personally asked his friend, Dr Weiss, to take care of Mom. Amy says that although this was "protocol", atleast we should've had the courtesy of being informed. Dr Weiss repaired Mom's hip as best he could considering the type of injury. The 50% weight bearing is basically for the recovery period, approximately 4 weeks. They cannot afford for the bolt/screw to break. After that, she SHOULD make anywhere between a 75% to possibly 90% recovery. After seeing her yesterday and how quickly she transitioned from the anesthetic delerium, Amy and the Drs feel that Mom should do as well with the hip rehab as she did with her knee! She will most likely stay in the hospital where she is until Monday or Tuesday. Then she will go over to the McCormick Joint Center for intensive OT and PT. How long she stays there depends on her progress/attitude, etc.... Amy has been with that joint repair floor for over 15 years and feels that based on what she has seen and how well Mom has done so far, there is no reason to think that Mom won't be able to return to her independent living. It will take time and patience and dedication to her exercises, but she is going to do this! Amy is also verifying with the surgeon/drs that Mom is still able to have her cataract surgery as planned. Without her sight, her outlook would suck. Amy is aware of the impact that this has on her. All in all, a MUCH better outlook than originally thought. We just need to keep her focused and give her all the encouragement that we can.

Post Surgical Update
Samantha and I stayed with Mom until 9;00 p.m. She was quite uncomfortable still and was experiencing post surgical psychosis. She was agitated, slightly combative and had NO mouth filter at all. We got her to take sips of water and ice chips, but she needed medicine for pain and nausea. She will probably put in a so so night. The P.A. from the surgical team came in and talked to us. She said that considering Mom's experience with the knee, she will probably heal quickly and rehab well. Dr Weiss(?), the actual surgeon, called Deb and told her that Mom will have a long road ahead of her. He said he repaired the hip and made it for 50% weight. After talking to the nurse and researching this further, it appears very different from what the P.A. told me. 50% weight refers to the amount of her body weight she will most likely tolerate at all ever on her hip. Not good. This may impact her ability to recover to her former self and level of independence. Further talks with PT, OT and the Surgeon are in order to determine if Mom will be able to go back to St Judes, or need to relocate somewhere that has assisted living. I will find out more from the team treating her. She does not know any of this yet. She was still agitated when we left tonight. I did get her phone and TV hooked up. Her room # is 3116 and her phone# is 368-1829. FYI- she said she saw her brothers Warren and Al there. That's how delusional she was. Hard to watch...

******** Momma Auddy Info *******
I spoke with Robin,Mom's nurse on the 3600 unit. She is still very uncomfortable, but Robin is keeping right on top of Mom's pain. She has been upgraded to Dilaudid, a very potent pain killer. Her room is on the 3600 unit, a floor in the Golisano Neuro Rehab. Parking is near the Birthing Center. Surgery is scheduled for sometime tomorrow, but a definite time is not clear at this point. These types of surgeries are added in to the schedule and fit in wherever possible. Robin assures me that Mom will be taken VERY good care of. I will call back in the morning after the night nurses do "rounds" with the day nurses. Hopefully, we'll have more info at that time. No phone in her room at this time, but she will have one after surgery.

Auddy Momma Update!
Mom had her 3 month follow up with Dr Barr this morning. He is her Chemo Dr. She had to do some blood work, but great news!!! She is in total remission! He is tickled at her "perfect" lab numbers. She is going for a PET scan sometime next week to absolutely confirm that the cancer has gone nowhere else in her body. Dr Barr seemed confident that this PET scan will be just a formality. Next month, she sees her Radiation Doc, Dr Constine. At that time, he will officially declare her in remission and from there, he and Dr Barr will alternate seeing her every 3 months just to "follow her" and ensure that she has no issues going on. At her appt with Dr Barr in March, he will discuss with her the option to finally remove her Medi Port in her clavicle area. This will be the caboose on the train! Dr Barr feels very strongly that the Lymphoma will NOT come back in the affected arm ever again. However, that being said, he wants to follow her every 3 months forever, because it could POSSIBLY return elsewhere. He did not dwell on that because she looks great and is feeling more like her old self again. He said she can get her flu shot and have her cataract surgery whenever she wants. As for the remaining swelling in her arm, we will have to return to the Lymphedema Clinic @ URMC to have the PT initiate therapy. Perhaps we can arrange for a lymph sleeve to wear long term to reduce some of it.
Final thoughts - she is doing beautifully and he couldn't be more pleased!
