So Far...

The Dr. seems optimistic that we were able to catch anything before it happened. Meaning it looks like I ;) got him to the ER before he actually caught anything that could cause an infection. We are still awaiting results of the cultures and that could take anywhere from 24 -48 hours. He still will be in the hospital for a few days until they can get his white blood count up. He is allowed out of the room and has to wear a mask. Anyone can visit if they are 12 and older. If you think you are sick or are coming down with something you must wear a mask while in the room with him. They have to keep his room door closed to protect him since he is a neutripinc patient and there are to be NO Live flowers, plants, fresh fruits or vegetables allowed in the room with him due to bacteria. We all wish he was home and the kids haven't asked about him. I don't know if it is because they just assume that he was at work since we left last night when they were sound asleep. The dr. probably won't post pone his second round which means he'll only have a few days home before he is hospitalized once again. Please continue your prayers and pray that his white blood count will go up quickly so he can come back home and be with us.
