Hi Everyone,
Just came home from the hospital and thought I'd fire off a quick note before going to bed. Doug has gotten 2 units of blood so far. The infectious disease doctor is almost 90% sure Doug has some kind of staph infection (not good). They already started antibiotics for that yesterday and tomorrow they are running another round of blood cultures to be certain. They think the problem is coming from the Quinton port. If so, they will remove it. We've been told it will be a long fight to rid his blood of this infection. Doug remains in fairly high spirits and looks better since getting the transfusions. He'll probably get another tomorrow. I'm sorry I can't call each of you individually but time doesn't allow it between working and spending all evening with Doug. Remember him in your prayers.
Thanks.
Leeanne
