Not so good that we found out he had a strep bacteria from the line. It is serious but they are treating it with the most aggressive antibiotics. Say an extra prayer for that. Scary. We are waiting for a CAT scan to look more closely at the pneumonia. Hopefully there will not be any surprises there. Cody felt better today. He got up, ate an ice, drank some ginger ale and talked and watched a little TV. That makes me feel better. Such a sweet boy!
The day was much better. We did not need the CAT scan after the xray looked better today.
I got a little more information about the strep virilens bacteria he has. ( I explained it in my email update.) Hopefully it is out of his body, all of it. He feels better so our dr is convinced it was the old port. It is out too. He is still on the oxygen but used his phone and computer for a minute so he must feel a little better. He is tired but talks to me and seems to be more like himself.
His hair is coming out in clumps. Faster than before. That radiation is potent. I have been wiping it and it just wipes off like you were cleaning it off the floor. He is ok with it. He likes the buzz look.
I hope this is the end of his bouts with these two infections but there could be more. It is so scary.
