good news/bad news

[serene]

Well, the good news is that Dr. Wu doesn't send people home without doing a good blood workup first. You can probably guess the bad news.

She'll have a CAT scan today to figure out where the infection is, and I'm sure they'll get it under control. She actually doesn't sound all that disappointed; I think she's feeling that she is getting rest that she might not get once she's home. I, of course, will endeavor to make that not-true.

By the way, if I haven't mentioned it yet, there is no freaking way I could have gotten through this without my boyfriends. From sending me sweet messages to offering to pay for bus fare if I want to escape, they have been just the Platonic ideal of the supportive sweetheart, and I love them even more (which of course makes it even harder to be away from them, *sigh*).

I'm glad they're thorough and that your mom is doing well enough to take it in stride -- may she be better and back home quickly!

blah. infection is not so good. i am hoping for not-mrsa, although my father is living proof that mrsa is curable. if it is mrsa, and you want to talk about how to handle it some, send me an email.

*hugs* I know it's seeming like there's no progress without a hidden pitfall, but I'm glad you have support, both for your own sake and so that you can give support in turn.

I hope they beat the infection quickly.
