James was up before 4am and so I got up to.  We left right at 5.  The air mattress I bought for him fit perfectly in the back of my car.  The only problem is by the end of the trip most of the air had leaked out.  We made it to the imaging center and James forgot about not standing on his leg and almost made a crash landing out of the back of the car.  He grabbed the walker just in time.  After the x-rays we drove a couple of blocks south to Ortega's office, Sonoran Orthopaedic.  As the aide took the bandage off James's leg looked red.  I told him I thought it looed infected.  When Brittany, the PA, came in she said it looked infected and she didn't want to take any chances so she sent him across the street to the hospital ER.

 We waited in the Er until 1pm.  I had to leave for my dental appointment where they put on my new crown.  Now I need another one because I lost my left upper back filling on the way here chewing on a piece of jerky.  Will I never learn? 

James was admitted to the hospital and immediately put on IV antibiotics.  This time he is in room 501.  We had planned on returning home this afternoon so I did not bring any clothes or my meds with me.  Luckily I did bring my makeup.  I wanted to go home to get my meds but James didn't want me to so I didn't go. 

I brought James a Whataburger and stayed until around 6:30.  I am exhausted so I leave a little early to go back to Chandler.  Dave and Laura came to visit after I left and brought him dark chocolate covered almonds.  Zaki also came by around 2 am. 

James had an MRI last night and he said it was very painful.

Joshua lost his two front teeth.
