mdlbearSometime this afternoon we're going to move Colleen to a skilled nursing facility, White Blossom Care Center on Fruitdale Ave. in San Jose. It's a short walk from the Younger Daughter's school.
She's staying on IV antibiotics for another two weeks, and next week she'll be seeing a specialist in San Francisco. It is currently suspected that the fistula is not due to her Crohn's disease but more likely a consequence of either her hernia operation two years ago, or her bout with diverticulitis 15 years ago. A previous surgery, in any case. So Remicade is on hold, but things still look hopeful. More so, because if it isn't Crohn's there wouldn't be any reason not to fix it surgically.
More news, including contact info, as it comes in. Meanwhile, her cell phone still works.
