a few steps backwards

we have had some bad luck. i was admitted into the hospital on Friday with a bad infection and it was a tough couple of days. i am finally responding today to iv meds and they pulled my catheter and will not replace it until Tuesday to insure i can recover from this. i will be here awhile and hopefully we will have some good news soon. my brother dave and his family stopped by, but i was still feeling pretty lousy, so our visit was short. it was still good to see them for a few minutes anyway. then ben's family arrived today and finally i was able to get out of bed and go for wheel chair ride. we snuck out to caribou coffee too. we are still not sure of the next steps, but i will be in the hospital for the next couple of days.
