So my dad is having "minor" surgery in a few hours. He checked into the hospital yesterday after a few days of discomfort. He seems to have a skin infection called cellulitis, and he had elevated blood sugar levels (he's never been diabetic, hopefully it's just a side effect of the infection). They got him on an IV, antibiotics and insulin.
The surgery is to remove a patch of dead skin...right now I'm trying to forget the fact that after my mom told me he was in the hospital I looked up cellulitis and found that it happens to be the early stages of the flesh eating virus.
