As of yesterday morning Pop's white blood cell count was up to 1.3 and they expect that he will be discharged sometime today. Great news! His blood cultures showed no growth. Also he has not had a fever for a couple of days. He was still on antibiotics yesterday, but not on a continuous IV infusion. He still cannot eat solid foods, but did manage to drink a couple Boosts yesterday and was planning on drinking a couple more. Drinking water is still too difficult to handle. He says the stuff just feels like it gets stuck! The GI Dr. came to see him yesterday afternoon and stated that he would not order any invasive procedures here since he has had radiation in the past. We were very thankful for that. Not sure if they are going to try anything else or just wait and see what the Drs. at Moffitt say. I will let you know more later when I go up to visit!
Keep praying! Toni
