We've been on a bit of a roller-coaster, Fred and I. As you know, Fred has been in ICU at NVRH this past week. He has received excellent care and yesterday when I left, he was awaiting his roast pork dinner. However, the breathing/pneumonia/lung infection is persisting and the doctors at NVRH transferred him to Dartmouth Hitchcock late yesterday. This was not an emergency transfer - but the surgeons at NVRH do not do the type of procedure needed to get the fluid and sludge out of his lungs. We were relieved when we got word there was room at Dartmouth Hitchcock. With so much flu, emergency rooms, ICUs and hospitals generally, are full to capacity. I'm waiting to hear from Fred before I head down there today. That's it from here for now.
Here's something to make the Winter Olympics more personal - Amanda Pelkey is Andy LaPrade’s great-niece. She’s on the US Women’s Olympic hockey team. #37. Watch for her!
