Rumor has it....Zeta is a little homesick too.
The people here at Phoenix Children's Hospital have been so good to us, but we all know there's no place like home!
The UTI kind of threw a wrench in things. Zeta has the remarkable tendency to get all of these strange, sometimes hard to treat bacteria. So, of course she has been growing one that is pretty drug resistant and the only drug available to go home on is a kind of controversial drug within general medicine....she has been on this drug before (the drug is very commonly used in Cystic Fibrosis patients without incidence) but we knew that it would be ultimately up to the attending physician on staff today as to whether or not we would have to stay here and complete the 10-14 day course of IV antibiotics or if we would be able to go home on the oral dose. It's the same way when we're at MUSC - some doctors feel okay about prescribing the oral drug and others don't. We've been trying to prepare ourselves for the fact that we might end up staying here longer while praying that we would be able to go home.
Well, I just got the OFFICIAL news.........We WILL be able to go home tomorrow!!
Good bye Arizona!
We can't wait to get home, BUT
We will be eternally grateful for the difference Barrow's Neurological Institute and Phoenix Children's Hospital have made in our lives!
It was a pleasure being apart of Zetas team:)
