Robin update: home!

Robin is home! She got discharged around 2:30pm today.

Magic occurred overnight: the lesions are much much lighter, she is eating well, drinking at least some, is comfortable to the point of minimal medication.  As you can see from the photo, she was her normal playful self when Erin and I got to the hospital this morning.

She will probably still have a fever, and will still have the rash for a long time, but hopefully the itchiness will continue to ease.

Everyone is happy to be home.

Everyone is happy that everyone is home. You can see in her eyes that she's a trooper though. That's a tough kid. She'll walk the off.
