Colleen's Admission Day Two

No fevers so far today. Great appetite. Colleen's hemaglobin is still down and falling, but that is most likely due to the two illnesses and she may not have had a chance to recover fully yet. Still, Dr. Levine decided to do some other blood work to investigate that further, just to rule out some other more sinister possibility. Otherwise, if the fever doesn't return, and her other "cultures" stay negative for 48 hours, she can be discharged. Dad spent the night with her and indicated she had diarrhea all over her bed. Could it be possible that strapped to an IV pole, Colleen just couldn't get herself to the potty in time? Maybe she asked Dad for help, and he was sound asleep??? She has not had any diarrhea yet today, so I'd say she is on her way to a full recovery.
