Sorry it has been so long since, I have updated. Wes’ fevers finally broke on Sunday. Dr. Bowman was still concerned with his drippy nose and decided to move his myelogram, dye inserted into his spinal fluid in addition to a series of x-rays and CT scans.
Yesterday began with Wes choking up his OG tube, then the afternoon was spent waiting for him to return from the myelogram. Dr. Bowman was pleased overall with the scans. She is aware of the radiologist concern with one area, but feels that this area is part of his nasal septum.
She has been very conservative with Wes case, handling each issue delicately and thoroughly. This morning she decided to forego any further testing and release Wes tomorrow if he is fever free without antibiotics for 24 hours. No fevers and then he can have his PICC line removed. He went through a very traumatic experience to get this line.

I am so glad to hear that his fever is gone. I am very thankful for his doctors and the staff in Chicago. You and Joey give each other a hug for me and give one to Little Guy. We will keep praying for progress and wellness. You are always in our prayers.
WE LOVE YOU !

Yeahhhh the fevers are gone! Hope he gets released tomm! Will he have to stay in the area for alittle while longer? I was thinking you mentioned something about it.
Hope the rest of you are hanging in there also. I am sure it will be a blessing to get back home!
