The Journey Continues:Another quick update

The PA called yesterday and said that one of the nose swabs showed the common cold.  So he has a cold and  crackles in his lungs but he is still running a temperature.  His temperature is going up to 103.4.  Yesterday evening after he took his Tylenol it only went down to 100.5 after being 102.2.  This is the eighth day of fever.

He was running fever in the middle of the night of 101.8 but refused to take anything.  He said let's just see what it does.  Well by this morning it was 103.4 and he did take Tylenol then.  He is such a stubborn, stubborn man.  He is still coughing up gunk in spurts.

The results from the blood cultures should be ready today.  Hopefully they will show up nothing!
