Merry Christmas 2014
Merry Christmas!
Denise is recovering very nicely from the summer's surgery and is back to normal activity (as much as her energy level will allow), minus any heavy lifting. The most recent CF titers for cocci came back negative, and her liver labs are at the high end of normal. So the Voriconazole is doing a nice job of suppressing the cocci and not impacting her liver as much as in the past. And so because those two points are favorable, Denise was spared from having to undergo a spinal tap & MRI to see what the cocci might be doing to her CSF & brain. As we've come to expect, the med does make her very sun-sensitive, so Denise has had to have more precancerous spots removed. All things considered, much, much, much better shape than Christmas 2005. We are grateful.
