K at St Jo

Day 1 at Exempla St Joseph Hospital. I visited with K in her room late tonight. She's on an IV broad spectrum antibiotic. I think because this is an issue with infection, they gave her a private room, so maybe she'll be able to sleep through the night during this stay. The doc thinks she'll be there at least several days. The idea is to enforce the "stay off your feet!" directive she's supposed to have been following for the past several weeks. It seems like some surgery is required, but there's no discussion of it yet, aside from K asking about it. With any luck, having the pressure off her feet will help allow them to heal. Her dialysis center knows she's not coming anytime soon. It snowed several inches tonight, but our new CR-V made the trip to and from the hospital an easy and safe proposition. Mandy was disappointed that she had to stay in her nice warm bed in the car while I was up visiting K, but with the issue being infection, it didn't seem appropriate to take her up.
