Rebecca and Blood Poisoning


Rebecca went to a graduation party at a friends house.  She was running around bare foot.  One of her guy friends commented that she needed to have shoes on.  Right after the comment, she stepped on a stick.  It went into her foot.  She pulled the stick out and kept going.  Sand volleyball, swimming, etc.--  All the fun things to do at an outdoor graduation party.  

The next day her foot started hurting.  By the afternoon, she had a small red line starting to travel up her foot.  I decided we needed to go to Urgent Care.  Graduation was the next day and she had to sing a song and walk the stage.  The pain was getting pretty intense and so we headed to Boerne Urgent Care.  




Cleaning the wound


Antibiotics and a nice clean wound.  

Grammy (Su) and Grandpa (Bob) got to our house that afternoon.  Rebecca's foot was still quite painful and she need crutches.  I couldn't find ours.  We made a trip into town on the way to Rebecca's birthday dinner, to buy some crutches.  Now we have 2 pair because we found the others.

Rebecca did take the crutches to graduation practice.  She was able to walk across the stage unassisted.
