In 'n Out

Back in hospital because fevers/blood counts not under control. No news really because they don't know what exactly is going on and what to do about it it seems. In the meantime Andrew has had plenty of IV antibiotics and fluids and transfusions (including platelets). Nausea under control with drugs too now which is a plus. All we know is that he will definitely be in until at least tomorrow. Usually they say until 24hrs without fever ... but that doesn't look like it is going to happen. All cultures taken so far have been negative. They want to do a nasal swab culture and due to past history of nose bleeds ... Andrew is resisting (understandably). Rash has cleared up - two thumbs up. Andrew showing amazing fortitude ... still smiling!

  2. Andrew, Wishing you a speedy recovery. I once read that foot massages from nurses makes the patient fell better. Suggest it to Stanford staff. Our thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery, Jimmy, Wendy and the Lew girls.
