Back in the hospital

Well James was doing pretty good till Sunday evening. We went to my parents for family dinner and he was just really cranky and didn't feel well at all. Later that night he got a fever of 101.4. So we called the doctor and told her what was going on and she had us bring him in. He was admitted shortly after they took his blood and gave him antibiotics. They always give him three different kinds to cover anything that might be making him sick. The blood cultures came back negative which is great. As long as they blood cultures continue to be negative and he doesn't get anymore fevers he can go home Wednesday. They have to monitor him and give him antibiotics for 48hrs before he can leave. So now every time he gets a fever we know to just plan on being in the hospital for two days. Other than that he will probably get some blood while he's here cause his hemaglobin was low. They also want to try to turn his feeds back on tomorrow or Wednesday. Hopefully he can do well with it and keep it down.
