Banjo's in da woods! New plans!

Apparently, last night when Sharon wrote the blog about our leaving, she closed saying that she was hearing strains of Rocky Top playing in the distance. I think what she heard was just the banjos playing in the deep woods at midnight! Shortly after she wrote that, she called me and was terribly sick. What I thought that I had a touch of food poisoning from bad food turned out to be a bit of stomach flu. She came down with it about 24 hours after I did. While dealing with that, her incision decided to erupt again and leaked all over everything in sight! Now, I'm fully up and involved in gaining a "cure" for two or three problems Sharon is having. We finally called the after hours number at Dr Emerson's office and, after talking to the doctor for a while, we decided to wait until office hours to pursue help. I used just about all that was available to change dressings and clean up with. Celine, our visiting nurse, came in around 8:30 and helped tremendously. Had a call from Dr Emerson's office that said to take her to the hospital for admission. They had a room waiting for her and would install a Wound Suction device to help the drainage and get it stopped. We went over about 10:00 and she was taken in immediately. I ran into Dr Baum, the infectious disease specialist, while she was on rounds and she went by to check on how Sharon was doing. I had to leave to come back to the Extended Stay to get all the "stuff" washed before it was too late and am now waiting for the washer and dryer to run it's course to head back over to the hospital to see how far they have come with her treatment. Things were happening slowly before I left. At present, we have no idea how long she will be in the hospital nor when we will be able to travel again. Hopefully, it won't be too long!

Cheers!
