Brendon is now off the PCA device and is seeing how the oral pain medicine does with managing his pain. So far it has been manageable. He is on 2 different types of pain medicines. They were talking about discharging us this afternoon or this evening, but then they took Bren's temperature and he had a fever of 100.6. So they waited a couple of hours and took it again. Still 100.6. We have been walking around and trying to keep things cool to get the temp to go down. No luck so far. Last check was about an hour ago and it was 100.9. They are not sure what's causing the fever.. His heart pretty rate is also pretty fast. His counts for this morning were low (white blood count is only 1.0), so they think he might be fighting something. So it's another night at the hospital, which is fine with us. We'd rather be safe than sorry.. The good thing is that Bren is not hooked up to any iv's so he doesn't have to push his big pole around wherever he goes. The sores in his mouth are getting better, but his tongue and the corners of his mouth are still pretty icky (technical term..). We are hoping that he'll feel much better tomorrow so that we can all go home.. We'll see.
