Ward 25

Manford was hospitalized yesterday on the oncology ward at Waikato Hospital for a big (knee to groin) blood clot in his leg. Apparently brain tumor patients are at particularly high risk for this. He isn't in any pain--just a very puffy foot--and is on blood thinners. I hope to find out more from the doctor today. The risk is that it could travel to the lung/heart of other parts.

At least it seems like a relatively nice unit, for the public hospital--private room with a view and a poster of puppies on the wall. And even a TV!

I'll write more when I know more.
