according to the doc, eric doesn't have a staph infection, which is good news. the wound cultures grew Proteus mirabilis, and it is sensitive to the antibiotic levaquin. the doctor says he wants to give antibiotics for a few more days, and then will likely send eric home with oral antibiotics.
these pictures are large, but i'm too tired to resize them.
these pictures make the wound look much deeper than it actually is.


on this pic, the puckered area above and to the left of the new wound is what's left of the old wound.
