May 3, 2007 — Mary Ann update
Melynna May 3rd, 2007
Mary Ann saw the local doctor yesterday afternoon — not her cancer doctor. She has what appears to be a fungus in her ear. It is usually only found in adults who are suffering with diabetes. Her ear was irrigated and the doctor perscibed ear drops that should balance the ph level in her ear and take care of this problem. She could immediately tell a difference.
Mary Ann’s cancer began on the inside of her cheek. Her parents were informed she might have problems with her ears, teeth, etc. — due to the massive doses of radiation she received. However, they were not told specifics and definitely wanted to have her ear checked when she began to experience the pain.
The local doctor also thought it was unnecessary to have an MRI at this time so she is scheduled to have her chemo port removed tomorrow afternoon.
Thank you for your prayers.
