The IV that they were running blood into infiltrated (went bad). So now she is going to have a huge bruise on her left ankle.
The not-so-encouraging thing is the nurse asked the charge nurse what to do. The charge nurse called IV team and wound team. IV team didn't know and Wound is gone home for the day.
They stopped the IV. Removed the IV. Iced the foot and elevated it.

Hi Mikael,
I am not sure my previous comments posted. Just want you to know I am following Ellie's progress--sounds like she is doing well. Love the pictures. So great to see her sitting up so straight. Wow. Wish I were there to spell you or at least be a distraction. Give Ellie a kiss for me. Love ya, Mom S
