Another Bug Hunt
Starr is still in the hospital, being pumped full of fluids. Her color’s improved greatly, though she’s still tired most of the time. They have ruled out a long list of possible issues, and are now fairly confident of the earlier guess that it was a bug. Now her doctors are running tests to see which antibiotic’s the best shot.
Meanwhile, she’s keeping herself busy with crocheting when she’s awake. This hospital has some decent TV channels and limited wireless access. (No WoW, she tried. If I knew Windows software better, I’d try to work around that for her, but she’s content with her hook-work.) If anyone wants to give her a call or swing by, drop me a note and I’ll pass along the room number. I’ve been by every day and twice yesterday, but more company is excellent medicine.
Her hospital is something else. Curving, gently lit, modern-decorated corridors; a huge atrium with a fountain wall; display cases of expensive art donated by the founder. I’ve taken to calling the place “Federation General Hospital.”
Thanks for everyone’s support. It’s been helping a great deal. You guys rock.

Sorry I missed this–my best to you and Starr!
I hate being so far away! But I can at least send good vibes. I’ll check in on you later and get the info from you regarding Starr’s room # and such
You best besure to take of yourself as well, cause you getting sick due to low immune systems isn’t going to do Starr anygood. 😛
Hugs
Does she need books? 😀
Or yarn?
Starr always accepts yarn 🙂
She practically sent me home from her bedside tonight! “You get some rest, young man!”
I’ll e-mail you the room and phone stuff.
I think that the ambient TV channel and crochet are relaxing her more than books would. Not that that makes any sense to me, but we must accept diversity, right?
Thank you very much! She remembered you from my LJ when I passed it along. Wish I could bring her to TCon to meet you!
