Bad News

Well, we enjoyed our short time at home. He woke up at 12:30 am shaking again, I took his temp and he was getting a fever again. They said if he got a fever, to give him tylenol and see if it got better, if not we needed to go to the ER. I gave him the tylenol and the fever kept going up. Finally it started going down again and by 3:30 am he fell asleep until 10 am. He woke up and wanted to eat. While in the hospital he got hooked on french toast, so I made him some french toast by his request. He was doing okay eating it, but then halfway through he started shaking again and getting a fever. Then he started throwing up and couldn't breathe. I called his doctor and his doctor was calling us at the same time. He said that Jon's blood tests showed he has a bacterial infection and we needed to head back to the hospital to be re-admitted. So, here we are again. They just took a chest x-ray and are starting him on an antibiotic. We will keep you posted, we're hoping he gets over this quickly.

While it stinks you are back in the hospital, it's good they figured it out. And though it stinks he's got an infection it is good they can get him antibiotics and get him over it. Bad news sprinkled with good news. Now just wait for the cherry to be placed on top and you're good to go.
