Hospital

We are in the hospital sooner than expected. Carson began running a fever in the wee morning hours. His ANC has dropped to 39, so he has absolutely no resistance to any germ that might be out there. Paul took him to the ER, while I stayed home to get Francesca off to school. Carson was admitted this morning and we'll probably here at least until tomorrow. He has had two rounds of IV antibiotics so far.

He doesn't have the flu. He doesn't feel too bad. He just has the 100 degree temperature and needs a blood transfusion as well. We are waiting to see if blood cultures reveal anything. He is not happy to be here. Please pray that we get home tomorrow!

  1. I heard last night from Kathy - I'm so sorry. And we really missed Francesca. Hope you can all head home today. Betsy P.
