Woot woot!

Hi everyone!

So, I sort-of know what's going on now!

Dr Kaplan got the CT scan results- he said they did find a little abscess, but apparently my body has "walled it off" so it's not very large, and isn't getting larger. I'm being admitted to the hospital today at 3 pm to get some intravenous antibiotics, so I'll probably be there for a couple days I'm sure, but it doesn't look like surgery is going to be necessary (unless, of course, the abscess gets out of hand or doesn't respond to antibiotics, but we'll cross our fingers here).

Still don't have much info otherwise, since this has all been via telephones- I'm sure I'll learn more about what's up when I see Dr Kaplan in the hospital. But at least for now it looks like I'll just have a short stay in Chez Foothills Hospital, hopefully not in a stretcher in the hallway, for some antibiotics.

I'm a little nervous about it, but I've got my bible, some books to read, my iPod, Nintendo DS, and mom even bought me a little yellow fuzzy bathrobe to wear in there over my gown, so I'm sure I'll be fine. :) I'll likely just feel gross from the meds and bored from the lack of things to do!

I'll make sure to get Kyle to post updates to my blog while I'm in there- if I end up being there for a while, come visit if you want, I'm sure I'll be bored senseless. :P

Wish me luck!!
