A sigh of relief

I have to make this a quick blog because Daley is patiently waiting for me to read a chapter from her Magic Treehouse book. Everything is looking great and we really think he'll be home Monday or Tuesday. All the docs have signed off on him except for the infectious disease one still treating him for yeast in his blood. When the kidney doc signed off she said "just so you know you ARE allergic to Vancomycin. The 20 minutes that ran through your body caused kidney failure. Any more and you would have needed dialysis. Don't ever allow a physician to give you this again." Good information to know.

Anyway, the surgeon came by today and took his staples out. Tomorrow his admitting physician and ID doc will fight about him going home on IV antifungal antibiotics. I believe the admitting physician will win and he will go home with oral medications. So hopefully my husband will come home soon and we can get back to our life.
