Back to the hospital
Just wanted to let everybody know that Luke had to be admitted to the hospital today at about 4:00pm. He has had a cold for the last couple days that he picked up from his siblings and the clinic wanted us to come in and have his ANC checked. His count was at zero and he has been running a slight fever, so they had him admitted to start a course of antibiotics via IV. We are currently waiting for a lab culture to come back to see if there is a virus or bacteria that they need to treat specifically out side of the general antibiotics that he is receiving currently. If this is the case they said to expect a seven to ten day hospital stay. If he only needs the general antibiotics, then we should expect a 48hr stay. Other than this he has been fairing pretty well. He has been in good spirits and is still acting like a normal five year old. He just tires out a little quicker than the rest. Thanks for your continued prayers and support.

Hello, I'm a mom of Luke's fellow CBS lambs. My son speaks fondly of Lucas and they've been lambs together for at least a couple years. Want you to know we just prayed for Lucas before bedtime. I hadn't ever read this blog before, but now I am caught up. Oh, my heart is heavy for you all, but grateful for the faith and courage the Lord pours on you. Will continue to pray with you and for you.
