Thanks for the prayers folks! We are home now; got discharged last night. Fevers are still unexplained as all of the tests came back negative, so far. She is on various medications and I believe they are working. She seems to be feeling better today with no fevers. Hope the healing continues.
Back in the hospital again. Friday's labs were okay, but the high fevers continued. New vomiting and headaches started again Sunday night, which prompted a visit to the ER Monday morning. She was admitted yesterday (Monday) for observation and a battery of tests including labs and an MRI.

MRI shows enlarged ventricles in her brain due to excess fluid (hydrocephalus), which is causing the headaches and vomiting. Also shows a little spot we need to watch--pray that its not a new tumor.

Still trying to find out why she's had fevers for an entire month since surgery. We should be discharged today...hopefully. Other than that, she is in a happy mood today, but ready to go home. Please keep her in your thoughts.
