Merry, they drained about 1 qt. of fluid from her lungs but the follow up x ray showed there was still something in her lower left lobe. They will be sending a scope into her left lung today to see if it is just phlegm, which they can suck out, or if the cancer has grown/spread to the area. If it is cancer that would mean that the chemo has been ineffective inhibiting the spread. Liz is resting better and hopefully things will go well today.

On a positive note, her pelvic x ray showed that there was no structural damage to her pelvic bones and there were only two very small areas of cancer on her femur which should be easily treatable when she gets through this sequence of chemo.
