Same old Ashli a few new tricks

Hi everyone! This is Anne the invisible sister because to those of you that have not met me I have only been known in theory. I was sitting with Ashli at the Elkhart General Hospital and thought I would update you all on what's going on with her. We came to the hospital on Mondy, April 3oth because Ashli was having alot of chest congestion. They decided she had a slight case of pnemonia which they have been taking care of. They also decided they wanted her to go to Chicago to get a feeding tube on this Thursday. Then they decided not (so for those of you who thought she was going it's off now.) As of today, the plan is she will be coming home on Friday, then return to Chicago for her next round of chemo and radiation.

So, now that you are all caught up on the information, I have a few funny Ashli stories for you. As many of you know, Ashli has been on some pretty strong pain meds one of which cause her to come in and out of sleep and have some very vivid dreams. First story, Ashli had a couple of visitors here and they were having a nice serious conversation when she dozed off. When she came to she said "I want another sandwhich." Turns out she was dreaming about an Arby's beef and cheddar. Second story, a couple of days ago she fell asleep with a box of kleenex beside her, she proceeded to pick it up and start tearing the box open. When she came to she said she was dreaming she was opening a box of ice cream bars. There are many more funny stories but I thought you would like to know that as we all know, Ashli is a very funny person, but dilaudid makes her funnier.
