Mommy Rose is at home where we, her family, are able to keep a close eye on her. While she isn’t as weak as she was when she was at the hospital, she remains bedridden because of their swollen leg. That particular part of their body is infected with bacteria that cause cellulitis.

According to the doctor who took care of her and ordered their discharge from the hospital, cellulitis is bound to take hold of Mommy Rose since she has leukemia. He also said that the bacterial infection usually lasts 12 days to two weeks but can be treated at home with oral antibiotics.

Recently, our Mommy Rose often forgets things especially those in the short-term. She also sometimes slips into a memory gap where she often mumbles about things in the past, thinking it is the present. This is quite worrisome for us since we aren’t used to her being forgetful but the doctor assured us that this is normal for their condition especially after they had a high fever due to cellulitis.

Although we are a big family, having Mommy Rose out of commission seems to take majority of our overall energy and happiness which is why we are very grateful for those who extended their help to us be it through medical assistance, financial aid, and moral support. Your help and prayers are golden.
