Journal entry by Jeanne Deren —
Wednesday afternoon Mary had a procedure to insert a stint in her bile duct to help relieve the jaundice. The procedure was non-invasive and she "came through with flying colors" (according to Mary). Her jaundice should slowly start to improve. Wednesday evening she was chipper and feeling good. She is being discharged Thursday afternoon and her palliative care at home will continue with hospice.
