Everything that Matters

A brief update page for the friends and family of Mark and Cheryl Matter regarding Katelyn Matter’s progress.

Last update: 11/04/2001 20:02 MT

Everybody's home! Katelyn's having a little bilirubin problem, but no big deal right now. This means a blood test every day or two to monitor the levels, and Katelyn's not particularly happy about that... Doctors are keeping an eye on it and treating it via phototherapy for the time being.

More importantly, We Have Pictures!

Yes! No! Yes! No! Just more false labor pains. The doctor has instructed Mark to get Cheryl to a flat, safe, environmentally controlled place and get her walking around. Sounds like time for the Mall!!

This is it!! Oops, never mind - false labor pains.

Cheryl's back from the doctor, who said "any time". What a roller coaster...

10/23/2001 10:33 MT update

Cheryl had a small procedure on 10/22/2001 that the doctor’s had hoped might set things in motion, but no such luck.

Cheryl is off of bed rest now. Actually, the doctors have recommended that she move around as much as she is able to as long as she’s comfortable.

She has another doctor’s appointment today, and an update will be posted later in the day if anything noteworthy comes up.
