I reported to the University of Pennsylvania Hospital last Thursday for an operation to find out that I had a severe kidney infection. They postponed the operation and admitted me to diagnosis and treat the bacterial infection. After 3 days in Intensive Care and another few days in a regular room, they sent me home Tuesday for a few weeks to take antibiotics to knock out the infection. The operation will be rescheduled when they are sure the infection is gone.
While recouping for the next two weeks, I'll try to post a Blog entry or two if I feel up to it, so check back in a day or two.
