Timeline

Sherry had her appt. with the infectious disease specialist. He is of the opinion that Sherry probably did not have a severe reaction to an anti-biotic early in her illness. He feels that the severe breakout of her skin was probably just part of the original toxic shock syndrome. However, he did prescribe a anti-biotic that Sherry has not had before as a test. Jody gave her a small, pediatric dose this afternoon and she did not have any kind of reaction. I just gave her a slightly larger dose a few minutes ago and will watch her over the next few hours. If all goes well, she will be able to use the anti-biotic for her surgery.

Dr. Ruff wants to see Sherry again before scheduling surgery. He cannot get her in until the 27th. We have been told that the operation probably cannot be scheduled for at least two weeks after that. So, Sherry is looking at about another month or so before she can get this over with. This does not make her very happy, but she is dealing with it okay for now. She at least has something resembling a timeline.

We are beginning to plan a birthday get together for this Friday evening at the Pearl Street Ice Cream Parlour. She would love to see as many of you as can make it. I will post more info here in the days to come and also be making phone calls. I hope we can make this a special night for her, she sure deserves it.

enough for now,

I love my wife........tomorrow we move forward
