At the hospital with my Dad. Today he has yet another fever. I couldn't even tell you how many fevers he's had since getting diagnosed with AML. It's annoying. Seriously like a roller coaster ride. Poor guy. Luckily, thank GOD they've been able to get his temperature under control each time he's had one. Today it is 101.3, so hopefully they will be able to get it down tonight. They always treat it by giving a bag of antibiotics and they already took some blood and urine cultures, so hopefully nothing weird will show up in the results (it could be something like an infection, which is bad).
In addition to his fever, he also has a headache. They gave him some Oxycotin, so hopefully that will alleviate it. Funny, I've had a headache all day too- only mine was probably due to my drinking last night.
The Bone Marrow Transplant is still on schedule for Thursday- praying that nothing delays it again. Did I mention that we have an 18 year old male donor with a 10:10 compatibility match? Simply amazing. Bless the boy's soul.
