Good news

In the midst of cross-state doctors' visits, blood tests, new staph infections, intravenous antibiotics, aneurysms, accute psoriasis and God knows what else, there was a bit of good news today:

Dad doesn't have to go back to Casper for a second CAT scan, as we originally thought. This week's CAT scan was comprehensive (we though it had only been from the hips down), and the two new aneurysms (in addition to two old ones) are all that were found overall.

He'll still have to go to Casper for any continued IV treatments, but the CAT scans, dye and blood draws associated therin are done for now.

Now, we just see what the surgeon says.

As Mom said, we may live to see the day when we're grateful this accident ever happened: We would never have known about the arterial problems otherwise.
