Well, the plan was for our Hero to get a couple of weeks off from going to the hospital, but sometimes germs and viruses have other plans. That was the case when Joe caught a bit of a bug on Sunday and, per protocol, had to head into see the doctor when he started to run a bit of a fever. After testing his numbers and revealing ever thing as strong they sent JoJo home to rest.
But as this rollercoaster ride goes sometimes, Team Taylor got a call Monday requesting Team Taylor's attendance back at the hospital as Joseph's blood cultures came back positive for infection, but after reviewing the x-rays they had ruled out pneumonia. A drip antibiotic was started to work on the infection and although his ANC had gone down to 659 (from 2000 the night before) there was no fever present. Per protocol, our Hero was admitted to keep an eye on him and his numbers for about a 48 hour period. But after good test results, his ANC up to 900 and climbing, Joe was sent home with his antibiotic IV to finish off the bad stuff. His energy remains high and positive but JoJo could really do without people poking him with needles all the time, after all his Xbox 360 just came back from repair and he has some catching up to do! Keep the positive thoughts and prayers coming and stay tuned...
