So, he should be getting discharged tomorrow, but he's not going back to work or anywhere except the doctor's office for at least 4 weeks.  Intravenous antibiotics, and stay OFF the FOOT.  He gets one of those rollie/scooter thingys for a month - the thing you kneel on and push and it has a handbrake?, and home health or somesuch will check on the IV port a couple of times a week, but antibiotics every 6 hours.  The nurse showed me how to hook it up, but I learn the saline flush bit tomorrow for afterward.  I hope it is the same setup for home -- they had a machine that pushes it from a syringe, and the hanging bags make me nervous.  I don't know why, they just do.

Wonder if I can put that on my resume!

Would you like us to stop by on our way into faire tomorrow? Anything you want us to bring along?

I need tomake up some Lavendar soap for Sisi, but that's gonna have to wait a few days. i can't think of anything else, really, but thanks for offering!

Just tell the people who keep saying they're "thinking of him" to drop him an email -- not a post on the list nor to LJ which he doesn't read, but I've put his email here several times and it's ON the list.

Thanks Jen!
