Thank you for your prayer support and care for mom and us during this difficult time.

Mom is recovering from her dehydration with IV and medication. It is likely feeding tube through nose will be used to solve the issue. It doesn't sound comfortable at all, but our goal now is to get her the needed nutrition without going through this cycle over again and hopefully she can start the treatment soon. Therefore she is likely to be at the hospital longer than we including mom expected and like to. But we will do whatever it takes to get her the needed care to fight this cancer.

Many of you have expressed that you would like to visit mom in the hospital. Since she is weak and will need to go through some procedures in the next few days, I think it is better to hold off the visits until later. I hope you would understand.

Thanks again for your support!
