Off topic. I posted a thing the Dr sent my wife in my thread in the pub. It's a nasty bacteria they found in her blood cultures. You may know what it is, there's a picture.

This sort of thing makes me so damn angry, because most of the time (not always), it’s caused by poor sanitation, whether in the OR, with the urinary catheter, or just plain day-to-day care.
Note for all: when you have a loved one or friend in the hospital, be a PITA. Ask every caretaker, whether doctor, nurse, or other, if they’ve washed their hands. It’s only endless nagging like this that will create change.
Meanwhile for Joe, I’m glad they have ID’d the culprit and presumably by now have the C&S (culture and sensitivity) results to know exactly what antibiotic to use.
I lost track: did they discharge her, or is she still an inpatient?
