prayer request

Hi friends. I awoke coughing up fresh blood. Disconcerting to say the least. I've talked with the on-call oncologist and pulmonologist in Dallas. This could actually be a tumor vessel being exposed from effective chemo. That sounded like a good thing to me. Or some other things not so good. In any case, this could lead to day at ER, etc. I'm hoping it was a one time thing. Going to pick up a couple Rx they prescribed, incl anti-biotic to prevent/address any infection issues. If it stops, I don't have to go to the ER. I'll let you know how it goes.
