We're just back from the doctors and I wanted to give you all an update on how things are going to go for us for the next few days. Tonight, Eric's mom, Gayle, is coming into town to help us with Amanda tomorrow morning while Eric and I take Logan to the hospital. We'll be there at 7 a.m. with his surgery scheduled for 8:30. Later that afternoon, it's back to doctor again for another shot. Logan is back on the iv antibiotic, Vancomycin, every 8 hours for the next 10 days. He'll get two days recovery time for his bacterial infection before we head back to the hospital on Saturday for his PICC line placement. The bacterial infection that has been festering in his white line is really throwing him for a loop. He hasn't been feeling like himself at all this week. Hopefully the Vancomycin will knock out the infection better than the other antibiotic he's been on. Eric and I got our new instructions today for this temporary heparin lock (iv) and the PICC line. You almost need a degree in medicine to keep up with all this!!!
In other news, check out some updated photos of Logan's new hair (and his really cute sister! : ). It's still very thin, but the baby fuzz is getting darker now to the point that people just think he has a military hair cut rather than cancer. Hopefully it will fill in enough to warm his little head this winter because I have a heck of a time getting him to wear a hat!
