Nate experienced his first setback. He spiked a fever Friday night and the chemo rule is, call the doctor when you have a fever. So the doctor told him to go to the ER. A friend came over to stay with the kids and off we went. Nate tested positive for influenza and his blood counts are way too low. The technical term is he is neutropenic. So Nate was admitted to the hospital. He will stay until his blood counts are improved and the fever is gone.
We knew there would be setbacks on this journey, but it is very frustrating for Nate. And the kids feel a little scared that Nate is in the hospital and they can not visit because of his compromised immune system right now. Please pray for a quick recovery.
We were with John Friday night and got an update this morning as he is traveling to you. Praying this pothole in the road will be quickly resolved, and prayers always for you and kids.
