3/25/22 - UPDATE FROM BETH ON Mary E Justice

Neuro just left. No plans for discharge anytime soon. First step is the Chest Abdomen Pelvis CT to check for any other tumors. If they find one, they will biopsy that and If no other tumors are found, then we either do biopsy of brain mass or a resection (?) to remove as much as they can. She got a 10mg dose of steroids will get additonal doses every 6 hours. She's complaining of low back pain from simply laying flat on her back and her medical team has been wonderful at getting that addressed along with everything else. There is talk of possibly moving her out of ICU to a regular room but nothing definite on that. ICU nurse loves her cause she said moms such an easy patient. Ha! The nurse believes she can have 2 visitors at a time. If more are here, it is unclear whether they can wait inside the hospital or not. Mom is okay with visitors, I just ask that you reach out and let me know so I can coordinate as best I can.

Please keep Mary E Justice in your prayers. Many are friends with Mary on Facebook and have seen the concerns expressed the past few days about her health. Below is an update from Beth. Please pray for answers, comfort and healing. Thank you.

Update on mom:

Her CT this morning revealed a mass and swelling on the right side of brain. She was referred to Emory St. Josephs for an MRI and Neuro eval. We only got the first part of that completed. She is being admitted so they can treat the swelling with IV steroid treatment and monitor her. Tomorrow she meets with Neuro team, has a biopsy, possibly another MRI and anything else her Internal Medicine team orders. There was mention of a CT CAP and PETSCAN on her CT report from this morning.

As I finish this up, they are prepping to move her to a room.
