McCall's nasty infection
Last week when I was changing McCall's clothes I noticed a huge lump on her neck. So we took her to the doctor and got some antibiotics. Well they didn't help at all and the lump was getting bigger and redder. (They said she had some swollen lymph nodes.) So I took her back to the doctor and then ending up having to get her a CT scan. Well they had a hard time finding a vein (after several pokes) for her IV and had to put one in her head. Her scan showed that not only was there a lump on her neck but also in her chest. So we've done blood test and have also put her on a different antibiotic that has to be administered through an IV. She has to keep the IV in for several days until she gets all of her doses. Hopefully this antibiotic will help clear everything quickly. She has several little dots from all the poking. It is so sad when she watches you through her tears as she gets poked. I think she knows when we go to the hospital something painful is about to happen.
