Well, Auna went Super Saiyan, and took that infection to school. She's out of the hospital, and I'm more convinced than ever that Children's Hospital in Minneapolis sucks. I'm not gonna get into all the details this time.
Here's the scoop they gave my sister when Auna got out. It was an infection that sometimes appears in spinal mengitis cases after treatment, but is very rare with the bacterial version. She was supposed to be on IV antibiotics at home, but they failed to give the necessary products to my sister, or the necessary instructions, and when the nurse showed up to help the next day, the IV had clogged because the vein had collapsed. My sister told me is just reeked when they pulled it out.
Adriauna's now on oral antibiotics, and she'll stay that way for a while yet. She is finally walking around again, and she doesn't want to take any pain medication. I know she's hurt because she's limping a little (to be expected), but she doesn't want to go back to the hospital I'm sure, so she's covering up the pain.
I went over there last night and visited with her for a few hours. Her bandage is nasty, and they didn't give my sister any instructions or materials to change it. Karla is calling today to find out what she's supposed to do, and she's a little worried because there are stiches there.
Hopefully Adriauna will be back to her hold self in a week or two. No medical estimates were given to me.
