Well deserved afternoon nap

It's cold outside and Donna is napping this afternoon. (At night, those crazy hospital people will not leave you alone. They are in and out poking, prodding, taking and giving - it's exhausting just being there !)

Yesterday they took the central IV line out of her right shoulder and put a line in the top of her hand. Quite accidentally, she pulled it out and it had to be reinserted. Ouch!


Good news - Donna walked 400' today, with a walker. They think that is fabulous! ! ! She obviously understood what they said yesterday about needing to build her strength before she can go home. I think she's had enough of Baptist Hospital !

The infectious disease doctor said - 5 more weeks of antibiotics. Does that mean in the hospital, or can she go home? Not confirmed yet so we'll report as soon as we get the details.
