Currently in ER waiting for a bed in CCU. Very bad pneumonia, cause presently unknown.
CCU is Critical Care Unit, usually a stage between ICU and the general part of the hospital. It has a high nurse-patient ratio. Actually I don't know exactly what they call the unit at the hospital in Charlotte (it is often given different names in different hospitals).
They are still waiting for a bed as of 15 minutes ago.
