Another hospitalization for David

With the pain in his chest that David was having on Tuesday, we were very worried about possible heart problems. But when they checked him out at the emergency room, they thought it might be swine flu, and slapped masks on both of us! They also sent him rather more quickly than usual up to the hospital ward, his usual, פנימית א (internal medicine aleph).

A day later, though, after the tests had apparently come back, they concluded that it was not swine flu but pneumonia. In any case, the antibiotics that they had already started him on did their work in short order, and he is feeling much better now. They have already said that he'll be released tomorrow (Sunday, 15 November).
