He woke up this morning with bad cramps in his left leg, and a rising temp. I took him in to see the doctor, and they decided his temp was so high (over 40 deg C) and his infection so bad (really red and swollen left leg, beginnings on it in the right thigh) that he needed to go back into hosp. for IV antibiotics.
So I waited with him as they called an ambulance - fanning him a lot - and then they took him into Auckland hosp.
He had cellulitis a few weeks ago as well, when he was in the hospice, and they treated it there.
On a slightly cheerier note, yesterday he went to the regular hospice social day (every Tuesday) and they went on a boat out in the harbour. He also had his nails painted teal - they look very nice! He tells me that next week they're going to be painted olive green for St Paddy's Day.
I'm bloody stressed. No surprise there...
