John is feeling better this morning. The shortness of breath seems to have dissapeared. His fever is down so that means that he is responding to the antibiotics. His heart rate and blood pressure are much better. He is a little nauseated but that could be from the antibiotics. It will take a couple of days more to see what grows in the blood cultures. I wouldn't be surprized if it is the same bacteria that he had before.
They do have him in the observation room but that is only because that was the only place they had to put him. I am sure that they will move him when another bed becomes available.
He is not quite as discouraged this morning. I think that because all the other symptoms seem to have come from a bug and not some other new and unknown thing it will be easier for him to be patient and do his week here. I am sure he feels like he is in prison at times. It must be hard to be released on probation and then get picked up and be put back into the slammer!
We are sitting in the TV room now so they have given him some freedom to move about. I am going to curl up on the couch and do some knitting. Maybe I will finish this sweater yet.

I'm praying! So sad to hear he's back but glad to hear that he is already feeling better.
Prayers are going out. We hope that it is just a minor set back, and he will be feeling fine, and home soon.
*hugest hugs to you all.
VERY glad that he seems to be feeling better today. :D
Praise God! Many prayers are being prayed for John and your family.
We will be praying that he gets a room with a view again.
