Froedtert Hospital

I just thought I should let you know what kind of place we're at here.  You can read about it for yourself here, but I can tell you first hand it's not like any other hospital I've been to.  I really have enjoyed the care she's receiving and I know part of it is because she's still in ICU.  She most likely won't get out of here tonight.  They have had to close the ER because the beds are full.  Good news for a hospital I guess.  She did over do it a bit in her sitting up earlier but she's getting along just fine now...resting and getting ready for dinner.  (Shelly - she's having a hard time chewing so soft foods are the best next week.)

Anyway I just thought I'd give you some background on her doctors.  Dr. Sinson was the neuro surgeon, he had the easier of the two jobs by just opening her up and replacing the bone.  He's young and really confident and sweet.  I like good bedside manner.   Dr. Harris is the eye specialists.  He had the hard job.  The longest part, well, maybe not.  Dr. Sinson was working on her for over two hours to open everything up just right.  Dr. Harris took those little teeny sharp tools and carved out the tumor.  He says it looks good as far as her eyesight goes.  

Anyway - I just thought maybe you would like to know what kind of hospital this is.  I like it and am happy with their choice.  I love our first class hospitals in springfield but this place is not like a hospital.  There's a deli and a coffee shop and a bank here.  It's incredible.  

Off to dinner with my sorority sister Lisa and her little boy Ethan.  

P.S. dinner is here...she's going to be try and eat and then rest.  She still says she over did it today. We can't take her to the party with us tonight...doggone it.
