Can you believe we are still sitting in a hospital room? We had plans to be at home for several hours by now. But that is what we get for thinking we are going to make plans. The night was not bad. Mark was awake more than normal, but more because he just couldn't sleep than for any particular reason. During the night he spiked a little fever. This probably added an element of stress over not getting to go home.
This morning the doctor came. He said that his white count was stable, so there was no obvious reason for the fever. And his hemoglobin had dropped in the last 24 hours for an unknown reason. He felt like he was okay to go, but figured with the drive and all, it would be better to continue to be monitored and have labs drawn in the morning. Planning for all to be good!
Mark took the new plan pretty hard. He was so set on getting home. So, instead, we worked on getting the kids to come today. Uncle Danny is bringing Abby and Landon from Scotland, and Teresa McAfee is picking Austin up at six flags to bring him. Mark is really excited and mama is tickled too.
So, we try again tomorrow. Love to all, Missy
