Triple Ugh!

So mumsy and popsicle headed off to Florida yesterday, only by the time they got there she had a temp of 104 and bad chills. Terrific. So they got to go to the hospital instead of the hotel, and when dad called me at 2:30 in the morning they had gotten her temp down but had now clue what was causing it. Her kidney hurts, but no bacteria showed up. I might mention that she had a fever on Monday, but it was gone by the time she made it to see the doc, who also found no trace of bacteria, and sent her home with enough antibiotics to make it through her trip if the fever came back. It did. So now they have admitted her because they want to find out what's wrong. They did a crappy CT and can see a spot on her liver which could be just about a million things given the wonderment of the radiologists report as he searched for organs she no longer has and tried to figure out the landscape. Now they need to do an MRI, but that has been postponed, so it'll be a while, and then a while longer before we know what it says. And then, does she continue on her journey or do she and my dad head back home and leave me here to rot away for another 4 days by myself? To know that, my friends, you'll just have to check back in and see.
