Here's our patient today, still suffering badly from her injuries, still unable to eat solid food. My husband just tried to help her stand up, and the pain was bad. She muttered, "My stupid cytokinins...my bloody interleukins."
"No need to swear," my husband said.
(Katie speaks medicalese all the time as she's been studying so hard for her med school exams which she can't take now).
I had to leave the patient for a few hours to work the Reading School spring fair -- that's my son's school. I couldn't just not show up. While I was there, I ran into Jacqui Gates and her baby daughter. I got the cutest pic of them playing in the sunshine:
Back to my nursing duties now. Am going to move Katie out into the sunshine and open up her bandages so the wounds can have some fresh air and hopefully stop oozing.

Katie, we all want those Angelina Jolie lips, but GIRL what a way to get 'em! Hope your interleukins are better today.
How awful, you must be so worried..
Best Wishes for a speedy recovery
POOR KATIE!! That's terrible! I hope you get well very soon and are back to using those interleukins (whatever those are) soon.
Ellen, thank you so much. Will tell Katie. Send us a Rocky/Sneaks update sometime (w/ cute foto). x
Poor thing, I hope Katie's gets better very soon.
Thanks Helen. Have been thinking about you and wondering what's up with you. x
