sent to hospital for infection - rose medical center

Well, not exactly the happy Father's Day celebration we had planned.

When Dawn, Brian, and Jim arrived at Monaco Parkway, they said that the ambulance had just left, taking Ed to Rose Medical Center (northeast of Colorado and 8th avenue for reference). Ed's fever spiked up to 105 degrees.

Unfortunately, they tried to reach me at the last known telephone number - my work phone. They're having a little difficulty with the concept that they need to try all three of my phone numbers - work, cell, and home, since they are mutually exclusive. But the bottom line is that they did take good care of Ed, for which we are extremely grateful.

(Some folks may wish to skip this - TMI?) Turns out that when Ed was in PS/L the last week in May, he actually had a urinary tract infection that spread, rather than pneumonia type bacteria. So, the concern is that he may have something similar going on again.

Ed is hanging in there, but the high fever is tough.

Thanks for all of your good thoughts and prayers.
