Same old information, nothing new.
He is still in pain, still having trouble breathing. Two sets of the doctors came in this morning to say everything is normal with what is going on in his body right now. Once the white blood cells can start to increase then the infection he has going on will begin to go away. His body will begin to heal. He is still yellow all over, jaundice, because of his liver emzymes. We joked that we could take him over to the maternity ward and get him butt naked in one of those light machines....he just said he wouldn't fit (so the nude part didn't bother him???)
Since he is having difficulty breathing during the night they did do another chest x-ray that we won't have results back until this afternoon. They are looking for either lumps and fluid. Doctors didn't seem that concerned with that this morning.
He really likes his night nurse, Kristen, who will be here again last night. She was on top of everything last night without us ever having to call for her. He did do a weird fever thing. By mouth he was normal, but under his arm he would be 102. Strange. They ended up bringing those mood ring kind of thermometers to stick on his head....so if you visit today, that is what the black rectangle is on top of his forehead.
I'm planning on taking advantage of Vicki and Kyle coming to visit today to go home and sleep in my own bed for a while. Maybe they can talk him in to going ahead and shaving his head today or tomorrow, since his hair is coming out now on his pillow more than before.
Have a good Saturday (it is Saturday right??). Please continue your clicks and prayers!
Love to you all!
