How did Fran's test go?

It'll be Friday sooner here than I could get there.

Yes, Alison have you heard anything about the results?

Well she has a serious case of cellulitis. They just delivered some IV antibiotics, an IV pole (aka George) and NaCl (not sure if those are the right elements could be SoCl). A nurse will come tomorrow to administer the 1st does and I will have to give her the 2nd dose each day. A nurse will come by every day for seven days.

Evidently whatever they are administering is heavy duty and will knock this out of the park. In the future, Fran will need to take antibiotics with every cut that she gets.

Wow it is super quiet today.

Been busy at the Doctors, bank and grocery store.
 
Home at LAST. I think I've been sold out. Will know for sure next week.


Decorative items....wish I could see the stuff! I love stopping at yard sales and picking through the items; just looking anyway since we cleaned out our house recently!

I posted this in the BUMP thread just to explain my short posts lately:

Monday was a bad day with my Mom; she thought she had a heart attack. She's 82 and quite the hypochondriac but does have high blood pressure. Anyway, she been through 2 totally unnecessary surgeries and the hospital she uses is horrible and known for missing diagnoses. She seems much better now and her blood pressure is lower and she is home in her retirement nursing center (about 70 minutes from me).

Work was the pits with the shipment of new laptops to our field staff and the typical problems of low-tech users not reading directions and calling for help (I help supervise a national Help Desk for a federal testing program).

klmall - I'll probably post something similar on bump....but I'm really sorry to read this. I hope your Mom is feeling better and that work settles down to an even pace. :hug:

Good Afternoon. Why isn't it Friday?

It's Friday in OZ!

It'll be Friday sooner here than I could get there.


Absolutely! ::yes::

If you got on a plane now and came here, you'd miss Friday altogether. :rotfl:

Yeah, I know. I'm just not happy with this job.

:hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug:

I hope she responds quickly to the medication. Are you doing okay?

BTW - NaCl are the correct elements for sodium cloride....salt. Na stands for Natrium, which is the Latin for salt.

NaCl is correct. Saline solution. Sodium chloride. Hey...those years of school chemistry and advanced chem at uni paid off...

But I digress...
I'm so sorry she is going through this. IV antibiotics is the fastest way to treat any infection. Because this has progressed that is why they have chosen that route.
My mum is at risk of something (name escapes me) and it got borderline the first time it happened. So given the hospital choice as we were on holidays she chose oral. But Fran will hopefully perk up quickly with this. :hug:

Crappy crap day at work today.

Sorry you're not liking your job Dana :hug:
