Men and bugs

Last week my man D started complaining about a bite he'd gotten a week earlier. Monday and Tuesday he decided to try some of his "little Grannie's" cures on it. No go. Wednesday it looked like he had a chicken egg under the skin on his arm. So he decided to try to get in to his doctor. He was told maybe by Friday they could see him. We wound up at the Emergency room. The doctor there lanced the abcess put some packing into in, gave him a perscription for antibiotics and told us to come back in two days. Friday we went back, his arm is not as red or hot but the abcess is still about the same size. They changed the packing and dressed it again. Come back in two more days. Sunday same thing. I'm starting to wonder if this will ever end. Hopefully we don't have to go there on Christmas day.

I hope everyone is having a good Christmas.
