She's had a miraculous recovery. I went to Hong Kong to see her (they transferred her there from Shanghai because they had a better intensive care unit). By the time I got there, she was doing quite well (no more mental deficits, and even her foot that had been numb for 2 days and turned black was looking and feeling almost normal!) She's back in the states now, still on i.v. antibiotics, but out of the hospital and very glad to be home. They still don't know what happened, althought they're treating it as an endocarditis (presumptively). We're expecting (and hoping for) a full recovery at this point. I can't think of any logical explanation for the recovery other than it was an answer to a lot of prayers. Thanks for asking.
