Ken is still at U of C, but I think he is better. His fever is at least coming down to 100 with tylenol. It goes back up, but at least it is better. He had a positive flu test today for flu A. That is supposed to be a possible pre H1N1 test, so they are waiting for the results from that test. May take 48 hours. Doc said today it is probably swine flu, since that is the A strain that is going around. So they are treating him as such. They are testing his white blood counts and will send him home when they are going back up again. May be tomorrow, but should be at least by Thursday. At least they are keeping him here thru his lowest blood count day. They haven't mentioned giving him blood transfusions again. So hope he is past that.
They moved him to room 1111. Still in the oncology floor, but not in the Bone marrow transplant side. It is a little quieter here and the view is great. Small things, but helpful.
Thanks for the well wishes. Ken loves reading them. Hug someone special soon.
Love ya, Bev
