Megamarathon in the Medical Unit
While medical technology kept Erin alive, information technology kept the rest of us connected. Using a secure blog the hospital provided, Rob's sister posted the first update soon after Erin's emergency surgery, days after she gave birth. Rob posted daily updates while Erin was in the ICU. When Erin's lungs and heart looked ready to work on their own, he put that on the blog. When she woke up and was transferred to a medical unit, Rob posted that. Sometimes the blogs were personal but in the early days, many read like the pages of a medical textbook.
