5/9/11 Hospital Visit

May 12, 2011

5/9/11
27 years ago my brother Larry was in a serious accident & had a rod
put in his femur. Recently his leg has really been hurting & he assumed
it was from a recent car accident. Today the pain in the leg was
so excruciating  he drove himself to the ER instead of going to work.
After a day of tests it was concluded he had an infection in the leg
& he needed emergency surgery.  He called at 7pm to tell us he was
going into surgery and we shouldn’t come. Of course, we went!
What if “decisions” had to be made????

St Mary’s hospital – 20 minutes from Ivyland.
My second time there this week.
This is where I came for my CT Scan & X-rays
earlier in the week.

We had the whole room to ourselves since it
was after hours.

The first surgery went well but more are anticipated.
It’s serious stuff b/c he could actually lose his leg!!!
Will keep you posted.
