The past twelve hours have been interesting! A few days ago Sal developed a minor infection on her foot. It hurt but outwardly was nothing serious. Unfortunately it gradually got more painful and swollen until yesterday evening when the deeper tissue around it went black, a red line began to travel up her foot and her leg started to hurt. We went to the after-hours part of the Duke Student Hospital and whilst there Sal began to get cold and dizzy. They sent us straight to emergency.
They diagnosed it as 'blood poisoning' from the infection and gave her a big dose of antibiotics intravenously. She was in the hospital overnight and I am happy to report that all her symptoms were gone by this morning. She was given her own room and says the treatment was extremely good. They discharged her at lunch time and she is currently resting at home.
She has asked me to let you all know that she is okay and not to worry.
