Back to GW Hospital

No. No. We are back in GW Hospital.

Jim had a procedure - an innocent enough adjustment to his drain from th surgery on Monday. This evening at supper time he began to feel hot and feverish and then began to have chills. A call to his doctor and we were on our way downtown to the emergeny room. By the time we got here his fever was 102.8. And, you guessed it - they started IV antibiotics and admitted him.

There is a story here and I will write more about it later.

Daggone it, Ellouise. I had so hoped everything would go smoothly.

My Dad once had an infection at the site of the tube that gave him antibiotics to fight the--you guessed it--infection. It took six months for the doctor to discover where the infection was coming from!
