Surgery/Tests

So they decided to pull his Hickman. That will happen tomorrow. I thought they were going to wait for the results from his CT scan which is scheduled for today.. (to see if there is a fungal infection) but they said they want to make sure they cover everything right now.

The Xray was clear.. but this CT will be a little more in depth. And of course, the surgeon comes in and says we are planning to remove the Hickman for tomorrow, but if there are any emergencies.. he will be put off.. of course my comment was isn't he an emergency? He's fighting for his life. 48 hours after they take out his Hickman, they will insert a PIK line into his arm.. at that time they will do his bone marrow and lumbar puncture t get ready for chemo. Ya, kick him when he's down.. I want to get the chemo done. But man, so much at one time for his little body.

Anyways.. his fevers are now 12 hours apart. And they are not as high. Which is great.. BUT there is still something there causing the fevers. His cough is getting worse too. It's this tickle in his throat.. and he says it's hard to breathe. So they are keeping a close eye on him.

They are starting him on a very strong antifungal med.. apparently it makes them feel quite sick. That's great.. just something else to add to the mix of shit he's on.. I tried getting them to put it off until he's done the CT .. but they said no, they wanted to start it now.

My adrenal fatigue starting to kick in again.. so I will have to try and be more diligent with what I eat, drink more water and take a trip to the health store and get something.

Avery is doing well.. she spent the weekend with her friend, and had a great time.

It will be difficult to gte Christmas stuff in order.. but I will try.

Love to all. Thanks for your support.
