SURGERY CANCELLED

Surgery has definitely been cancelled for tomorrow. In addition to the eye issue, an increase in his white blood cell count was discovered.

It will be rescheduled when we learn more about his possible infection. Thus far the studies have come back negative. However, as they remind me a million times "this does not rule out infection...we only test for certain viruses...we must wait and see how he does." So we'll see...as you can imagine, I am quite disappointed and frustrated but very relieved that we caught this if indeed there is an infection.

*A special thanks to all the Treasury of Memories staff and customers for the wonderful, loving red hearts...such sweet messages! Eliz decorated the room as a surprise when I stepped out...looks so great! (It was particularly funny because we were in isolation this afternoon so Eliz was decorating in a gown and mask...part doctor/part decorator!) Max definitely has the best decorated room in the ICU. Thanks again.
