Back Home...
In just 10 days after finding out that Bola's cancer is in-operable, we made the transition from hospital back home on Sep 10. Back to her own bed. She is so happy!
God provides for every need. Family flew into Japan in time to clean, sanitise, wash, fix the house in preparation for Bola's transfer.
The new medical team of Dr. Nakajima and Nurse Kaori (photo in pink) came to assess, care for, and come up with a new plan for Bola. Dr. N even ended our time with prayer! Nurse Kaori sang Bola a song. For now, the medical team visits at least 4 times a week and 24 hour on-call.
At-home care means we also need a support staff to be available for Bola. I (Ken) will be the primary care-giver, Mary Esther (in black) will be secondary care-giver. Many more will be volunteering in the coming days.
Instead of an Intra-venous line on her arm, Dr. T inserted a CV (Central Venous) port under Bola's right clavicle area to allow easy access for her nutritional and medicinal needs. She is now getting high calorie dosage. Her vitals have been really good. After 15 days of total fasting, Bola is now able to drink liquids again.
It is good to be back home...
