All went well.
Until 4 weeks later.
He ended up with a septic joint.
Infection that landed in the new joint.
So on the 28th of October he had another knee surgery.
Now he has a PICC line and gets IV antibiotics every 8 hours for 6 weeks.
The insurance approved me to be able to do the antibiotic infusions.
In the midst of the not so awesome stuff.
Awesome stuff happened.
My baby girl had a baby girl.
Lillian was born on November 12th by cesarean section.
And because I was unable to get any time off work at all my sweet daughter in law came from Utah
to take care of us all.
She does Howie’s infusions while I’m at work and is taking care of Candice who came to stay to recover.
A whole couch of beautiful girls.
And my oldest granddaughter holding my youngest granddaughter.

Heartfelt prayers for your hubby's recovery.
You certainly have had some emotional ups and downs recently!

(Is Howie receiving Vancomycin or Gentamicin?
There are some heavy-duty antibiotics that really beat the stuffing out of infections... Yay!)
