Mom text:

Monday update. Home health nurse felt dad needed to get fluid as his blood pressure was low and he appeared dry and was weak. Called and scheduled fluid for ten tomorrow. Talked with a nurse earlier and she agreed about postponing cat scan but she suggested Friday. Forgot he gets fluids Friday as chemo is Monday. Talked to nurse navigator regarding scan and she said to keep tomorrow appointment and and drink the stuff he has to drink while getting fluid and if he is coughing and they can't do scan we are to reschedule. I don't think he can do it but we will go with what she wants. Hate for him to drink this junk and then not get it done. He is finally eating a little something. No wonder he is weak but he says he just can't eat. Let you know what happens tomorrow. John is here and half of the Barney dog.
