Day 29 and things are looking better

Trish is happy - they finally disconnected the heart monitor and she was able to get up and shower. Dr. Karp was the attending again for one day, today, filling in for Dr. Smith. I was surprised she didn't wonder why Trish was released on Tuesday, since she was the one who said she won't go early.

Anyway, Dr. Karp declared that the red spots were fungal and she didn't need the biopsy to say that...We'll see what happens when the biopsy gets back. My money is on Dr. K's declaration. Trish is proving it by feeling better after getting the anti-fungal meds yesterday. The spots aren't going away yet though.

I have posted Trish's room phone number to the left again and updated the hospital address for the new room, but I wouldn't send anything quite yet to that address. Dr. Karp says she is here through Sunday for sure and she may get released again on Monday.

So if you wanted to send something - it is still probably best to send stuff to Aunt Mary's....If you are worried whether or not she received your card or package email me and I will let you know. As I said yesterday, we were able to divert the mail to her new room, but we missed anything that might have been delivered on Wednesday.

Should be a quiet day today. Trish is scheduled for a CT of her noggin' just to be sure I did a good job of catching her on Wednesday. Stay tuned. If anything else happens I'll keep you posted.

Trish's friend Susan is coming to visit on Saturday and I'll probably take a break.
