More for us to learn

Today Brody got a PIC line placed so he can go home sooner. Joss and I will be learning how to administer his medications through this long-term IV since Brody has to have IV antibiotics for about 6 weeks. The problem at this point is finding the antibiotic that can kill the Staph infection (may or may not be Resistant Staph-we don't know yet) without causing further damage to his kidney. The doctors are teasing with the idea of going home on Monday but I'm not counting on it. I know how this place works. They said that home health will be contacted to come into the home and help out. Joss laughed right out loud. We know better.... Kaybri has been having fun here at the hospital and has been really well behaved. Sadly, she is getting used to being here. She and Joss will have to go home today. The day they leave is always especially hard for me... :(
