Well, here we are again doing something I hoped we wouldn't have to, but it looks like it's all good. She had the shoulder surgery at about 5:00 this afternoon. The procedure went well. He found a pocket of pus that he had missed the first time that definitely was causing a good part of her shoulder problem. She got back to her room at about 7:30 and had a good dinner. There are some good things that will come out of this. The infection status will be evaluated and they will see if the antibiotic she is on is doing the job and also they are playing with her insulin dosage to see if she can get along with less.
The one down note after the surgery is that he put in some absorbent material in the cavity where the pus was found and he will have to go back in and remove that probably on Friday. As you know I'm terrible on predicting discharge dates, but I don't think it will be before Monday.
