Hospital Halloween

It has been a crazy week in the Hertel household.......Monday Seneca wound up in the hospital due to a bite from our cat. Sunday morning she was bit by Gracie and by Monday morning her hand was very swollen and red so I took her to the clinic Monday afternoon. As soon as the Dr. saw it, she admitted her to the hospital to start IV antibiotics. Well, needless to say, we were in the hospital until Wednesday noon. So Seneca spent Halloween in the hospital. She had a good time though. The nurses got permission from her Dr. for her to go Trick or Treating at the nursing home which is connected to the hospital so a nurse walked us halfway down through the tunnel which leads to the nursing home so we wouldn't have to go outside and then a maintance worker lead us the rest of the way and also stayed with us while we trick or treated and led us back to her room. She went as her regular planned costume "A ladybug" but didn't fully do the black clothes since we couldn't get them around her IV so we just put her wings and antennae on and loaded up on the candy! This is a photo of one of her friends from Daycare, Kate, who came to visit her. Kate was quite concerned about Seneca and Seneca very much appreciated her visit!
