Myra got a 4am wake up call for a bath and CT scan. It took them all day to get around to doing the CT scan- they started at about 5pm and are still waiting for the Infectious & Disease Control Doctor to draw a conclusion.

When this Dr. first discovered the infection in the liver, they pulled out 150 cc's of infection. She is still draining about 40 cc's but is now the color of the drained liquid is the more like bile rather than the color of an infection. This is puzzling to the doctors and Myra still has a fever and feels icky because of that.

Like all of the obstacles Myra has encountered, she's not getting too excited about this latest setback until the doctors know what the problem is.
