I just heard from Gina, through a friend, Helen. Gina has been at the hospital since yesterday afternoon, they are giving her blood thinners as she has several blood clots in her right thigh, and the knee is infected. She's got a dangerously high fever, and cannot use her hand to type to log in to Pet Talk because there are a couple IV's in it. (Ouch, I hate IV's in the hand!)
Her friend will update me later today, the emergency-room physicians are talking scary stuff (amputation - to keep blood clots from killing her) but Gina's knee surgeon is supposed to be there in an hour or so, and hopefully will be able to get at the source of the infection and hopefully the blood thinners will work on the clots.
Keep our girl in your prayers, okay folks?
