I almost didn't make it

I spent this past week in the hospital.

I had a urinary tract infection, and I had an E. coli infection in my blood. My temperature went up above 104.

They stuck me to draw blood and put IVs in every six hours.

I was so sick I didn't think I was going to make it. The doctors were not sure either. I've never been that sick in my life.

At one time, I thought I had dodged a bullet, but I decided that a better description was that I didn't dodge a bullet, but instead, I got hit by a bullet and was lucky enough to survive.

Except for getting COVID two times, I haven't been sick in 20 years. I haven't even had a cold, but I sure made up for it this past week.

I'm back in my motorhome in the NC mountains but still weak. This afternoon, I walked about half a mile beside the river, which used up most of my energy.

I have been taking antibiotics by IV day and night for the last week, but now I'm well enough that I can take my antibiotics in pill form. That's why I was allowed to come home.

I have a follow-up appointment with my doctor on Tuesday. Maybe I'll be a lot better by then.

Bottom line: I won't be discussing anything about RVs this week, but next week I hope to be back in full swing.
