October 16, 2008  Jodi is doing slightly better.  Her lungs sound awful in the AM but by noon they clear up.  She is still fighting pneumonia but other stomach problems seem to be slowing down.  She continues to fight with constant nausea as well.  We took a trip up to Ogden Regional to get blood drawn to try to determine if her electrolytes are stable and if her white count is coming down.  She sleeps most of the time because the only thing that she can have(that makes any difference) for the nausea and achiness is oxycodone which I give sparingly.  It makes her sleep.  That's it for now, it has been 8 days with slow improvement.  Hopefully she will turn a corner soon.   Connie
