February 25

Karen had a slight reaction (some facial flushing) to the first batch of chemo last night so the third drug of the treatment was put on hold until this morning.  She is doing okay but is easily confused and disoriented.  This morning (maybe sooner) she began hallucinating most likely as a result of the pain medication she is on.  The hospital will now have someone in her room 24/7 to help her out.  This third drug will take a total of 48 hours to run through her system and while that is happening she is unable to leave the floor in case their are any other reactions.  That means she won't be able to see Becca for a few days.
