John may get discharged today!

Hi!  I wanted to do a quick entry to let you all know that John is doing much better.  If he had no fever during the night, they are discharing him today.  That is providing they didn't find anything positive in his cultures that needs to be treated.

His fevers are finally starting to dissipate.  He is going to be sent home on an oral antibiotic, so he will no long need IV antibiotics.  He has been on two IV antibiotics in the hospital - Vancomycin and Cefepime. 

I feel bad that I even mentioned this hospitalization to you all as it did not turn out to be something serious.  I worried you after good news. 

I was concerned when he was first hospitalized, but am only relieved now. 

Hopefully John will be discharged tonight.  Just in time for the biggest snowstorm of the year!  Or what could be the biggest snow storm of the past twenty years, they say!  I hope it isn't that huge.  And I hope it doesn't last too long.  We should be stuck at Hope Lodge for a few days when John gets out of the hospital, because his release about coincides with when it is supposed too start snowing.  I am thankful that we have a safe place to stay.

So I will get back on tonight and let you know if he was discharged.

I also want to get back on today or tomorrow and write a little more on narcolepsy and answer a few of you all's questions.  

But for now I have to run over to the hospital to see what the doctors are saying about John. 

Okay, love you all, Krissy :)

  2. Dear Krissy, this is wonderful news.  So glad everything is going well for John.  I cannot believe your weather.  We have the opposite here.  Supposed to hit 79 degrees today and it is only April!!!  I hope John is safely home before the snowstorm hits. God bless you both.

  6. Yes, you should have posted about John being in the hospital. That way many prayere could be sent up for him. That could be the reason things didn't get really serious. Hope it doesn't snow as much as they are predicting. Helen

  10. Krissy, I am glad John is doing better.  That is good news.  IMHO, there is nothing wrong with letting your online friends know about a hospitalization, even if it turns out to be short or have a good outcome.  With fevers and John's health history there is never a way to know how serious the problem is at first, so I'd like to know when trouble happens.  Prayers continue for both of you.  I am looking forward to hearing more about the narcolepsy.
    loving you

  13. Good to hear that John may get home today - looking forward to your update. Snowstorm? It's up to 25C / 77F in the UK today. Don't hesitate to tell us what John's condition is - any change is cause of concern, small or large. Drive safely.

  20. Oh Krissy, I am thrilled to hear that John won't have to stay there long.  And never feel bad about talking to us, to  me anyway.  That is what friends are for!

    We just got 6-8 inches of  snow Wed. and Thursday.  Dave was unable to go out of town on business.  It was a mess!  I had to shovel half the back yard for the dogs to wee & uh you know.

    Let me know when you get safely home.  Love you both!  merry1621
