Finally.....

Day 8 of this hospital stay. Thursday morning at 7:30 am, Leticia received her orders for discharge from the hospital this morning. The official diagnosis is a staph infection, non mrsa strand, confirmed by the results of the culture that was taken 3 days ago.  She will continue on antibiotics at home but will have to continue to monitor this as it could ultimately last for six weeks. Bottom line is she gets to go home and continue her rest and rehab from the reconstruction surgery.  White blood cell count is back to normal and she has had no temperature for the last 36 hours. I personally would like to thank everyone that stopped by to see us in the hospital along with everybody who sent flowers/gifts. I am going to need a really big box for all of these flowers!! Breaking up the monotony of the hospital is the best gift you can give me.  Also, Sylvia-as always, thank you for being here and everything you do to help us.  We actually have a special visitor in town today-Brian Welch, former lead guitarist for KORN, is performing at Rock the Desert today and is coming over to hang out before the concert.  Thanks again and we will talk to you soon.  Brian
