Update on Ryan

Ryan came home on Saturday night. I went in around 4:00 and shook things up a bit at the nurse's station. It went something like this:

Me: "What's going on with my husband? Yesterday the Dr. told us he may be coming home today - he hasn't seen a Dr. since yesterday afternoon! Can we please see a Dr. and find out what's going on?!"

(after 5 minutes, enter the Dr.)

Dr: "Well, his blood is clear - no infection. The leg looks better. We'll give you another dose of the antibiotic tonight and send you home tomorrow - how does that sound?"
Me: "We were hoping he'd come home today."
Dr: "OK - I can send you home on oral antibiotics today - is that OK?"

Um, I don't know - you're the doctor! Anyway, we made it home in time for the VT football game. It's so good to have him here. Thank you for your prayers and offers to help. We are so blessed. Please continue to pray that the infection will clear up and we don't have to go back to the drawing board with this.
