Elijah readmitted
At noon, Elijah was happy and playing normally. One hour later, he began spiking a temp and wanted to rest. Nothing normal about that for him. By the time we made it to the hospital, his temp was 104.5. he was readmitted to the bmt unit. his temp is still 104.9 with Tylenol. They have taken blood cultures, started him on antibiotics, and are consulting with Immunology tomorrow. He was just in the clinic yesterday and things seemed stable.
He looked at me about an hour ago and burst into tears. This is only the second or third time I have seen tears during the past 7 months...unless you count mine..He is an amazing little boy..so gentle and sweet. It is so hard to watch him struggle and so easy to love this little boy. He has many friends on the unit and they have been glad to visit with him.
I am praying for a restful night fOr Elijah..he needs to gain his strength back. Please pray for him tonight if you could.
