Home sweet home….

Just a brief update.
Yesterday Carol was released from Moffitt after spending 6 days having some treatment to control the spiking fever and a very intense rash.
Aside from being bummed for having to go back to the hospital, these were exactly the same days Alexia, Trevor and Isabella arrived for a visit.
Since Carol couldn’t be home, Alexia, Trevor and Isabella made the trip to Moffitt each day to spend a few hours visiting Carol.

Being released from Moffitt was not a given, but since Dr. Tomblyn believes that Carol is a very reliable patient, it was OK for her to go home and continue with the antibiotics regimen be given via IV at home as if she were at the hospital.
The specially prepared antibiotics were delivered last night and this morning a nurse from SRQ came by to teach us how to give Carol the IV meds.
So here we are hunkered down and ready to see the ball drop. (if we manage to stay up)
Thank you again to everyone that reaches out to Carol in many different ways.
Jaime.
