Erica is now on the 5th floor of the Weinberg building, room 615, Pavillion D. Unfortunately she cannot receive flowers. We are not sure yet of the visiting hours, but I will update when we know more. Thankfully her embolization went well and they have stopped the bleeding, so now we are waiting for more information from the team of oncologists. On the 5th floor she will be more closely monitored by the medical oncologists so they can start looking at treatments. She did received the results of her PET scan and it looks like the only melanoma is on her liver, which is a relief. Erica's pain and discomfort has lessoned and this morning she was sitting up in a chair and able to move around a little more.
Erica, Christian and the rest of the Lipman/Lopez family say thank you to all of you for your wonderful thoughts and prayers. Please continue as Erica fights her uphill battle. The support of all of you is what will help her in the days to come.
