Hope you’re right.
My mother may be discharged in 2-3 days. She's getting some strong antibiotics for the wound inflammation, and would continue to get treatment at the Wound Center as an outpatient.
She continues to reject a surgical procedure which would likely help her, but she considers unacceptable.
If the antibiotics fail to do the trick, as the Infect. Dis. Dr. thinks will ultimately happen, my mother, without the surgery, would face a chronic infection situation, & all that ultimately means.
I'll continue to try to get her to think about the surgery, but....must be prepared, and my sister, too, for the likely outcome.
Will know more by end of day, I imagine, as MRI results will be available, and the Wound Center nurses and dr. will check on her today again.
