Christmas visit to John Hopkins

Adele & I drove to Baltimore today - concern by the home infusion supply folks about her catheter still leaking blood. Got there around 9:30 AM for the check, waited until 11:30 or so to get the OK to go back home. We will most likely need to go back tomorrow, the 26th, for a stitch or two.

Turns out her catheter is not secured properly to the incision area and will maybe need a stitch to secure it fast. Apparently it has been moving too much and the wound is not healing as it should. No doctors available on Christmas Day to do the job, so maybe another trip tomorrow.

We are also going back to JH on Saturday afternoon to check into their new apartments at Orleans St and Broadway. Just across Orleans from the Weinburg Building, which is where we go 99% of the time. Got an extended stay apartment, which is the larger apartment, so we could have bigger parties in the evenings. Really, I told them, no matter which type of apartment is available, we would take either - no matter the extra $27 / day for the larger one. So that is what we got. Staying from Saturday through maybe the 30th or 31st or the 1st?? Not sure, just need the numbers on the stem cells to be right.

If you go to maps.google.com and look up Orleans St & N Broadway, Baltimore, MD you can see where we are. Go to the street view, and look at the corner that is under construction, the red brick building is the apartment. If you line up the window so you can see the pedistrian crossover bridge in the middle of the screen. The Weinburg Building is on the left side of the picture and the apartments are on the right side. Both buildings have a distinctive peak on the roof, Weinburg has many more while the apartments have a peak on the corner only.

Merry Christmas to everyone - Rick & Adele
