Yesterday Max had his on again off again fevers. But at 7:00 they got to high and we had to take him in. He counts had plummeted since the day before. So we were admitted. We will be here til at least Friday, but most likely through the weekend.
They are monitoring his fevers, giving him a couple different antibiotics, blood transfusion, and shot of some kind that boosts white blood cell growth. I am praying that we can get on top of these fevers. The poor little guy has been dealing with them for over 2 weeks now.
I'll post more later, Max is awake and wants to rock....again.
