Infection!
Today was nothing short of an emotional rollercoaster! It started with me packing my adorable going home outfit for Callan in my bag and ended with a new IV, strong antibiotics and several tests. This morning when I went to see Callan I noticed a quarter sized red spot by the bottom of his incision. Initial blood tests showed no elevation in white blood cell count, but as the day went on, the spot grew, a fever emerged and white cell count increased. The doctors took both blood and urine cultures but it will take a couple days to get the results. Thankfully we caught it early, but Matt and I are both very nervous about the infection spreading. These next few days are going to be crucial, so please be praying for healing! We will most likely be here for at least another week while they monitor the infection.
