Staying until Monday

Well, we will be in the hospital until Monday. The cultures to see if the PICC line is infected take 48 hours to get back, plus there is a major blizzard here. She looks terrific. I'm sick of "working" because she keeps making me do therapy on her. Boredom is what we're trying to avoid now. It sure is nice to have someone else do her meds. And, Chris can't get back here because of the blizzard so he is home cleaning the house and getting projects done that he NEVER has time for. Don't call or text him unless it's words of encouragement to keep working!

Officially, they think that Eva had a kind of "serum sickness." Rare, of course. She was just fine until she got probably a virus, but possibly and infection popped up. Then the combination of those two things caused this "serum sickness." It wasn't an allergy because she never would have made it 2 weeks on the medicine if it was an allergy. So, she'd have been fine with the virus alone or fine with the meds alone, but not the combination. She just looks so much better though. I taught her what "cut the cheese" means and she thinks that is just hilarious. I don't remember ever just sitting and watch an entire movie with Eva because we all know I can't sit still at home. However, I've now watched High School Muscial 1 (AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!) and Enchanted (2.5 stars.)

Thanks for your words or encouragement and prayers for Eva.
