Mom's Room

OK, so Mom has a room now...
On Tuesday night (around midnight) they moved Mom from the ER isolation room to the Pediatrics isolation ward, and then at around 1:30am they moved her again to her current room. She is up in the Oncology ward in the North Building, floor 5-Unit N51 Room 5. She is up for visitors, though she does get tired pretty quickly.
Dr. Pansegrau came to see Mom yesterday while Shannon and I were visiting her and he gave a quick update as to what we can expect. Mom's white blood count it still low and will be for a few more days. Dr. P told us that Mom will more than likely be in the hospital for about 3-4 days (maybe more, maybe less, depending on her counts and how she is feeling). The good news is that Mom's temperature dropped down to 37.7C which is MUCH better.
We have since found out that visitors do not need to be gowned/masked/gloved during visits. But still no "sickies" please.
