Oh, the antibiotics will certainly help. So will visitors.
I was my mom's (she had cardiac illness) caregiver from the time I was twelve (long story) until she died when I was 42. Something I will pass along, just in case. I learned that if I gave the nurses and doctors the belief that I was entirely capable of caring for my mom at home they would send her home sooner. When I began to say No, I cannot do this, you absolutely must keep her an additional night (or 2), they did.
