More good news! Nolan's blood work all looks great. His white blood cell count is almost back to normal. The CRP (inflammation level) is normal. His second urine culture was negative! Praise God.
However, the MD still highly recommends that we stay in the hospital for a total of 7 days to ensure that he continues to recover and does not relapse. She mentioned that the real reason for this is that there is simply no literature that indicates guidelines for our situation and Nolan's age. So basically we are erring on the side of caution. Frustrating because that keeps us in the hospital, but good because we will be able to go home worry free. He will still be on antibiotics when we go home, but for 7 days. He still has to endure the test to see if he has some urine reflux into his kidneys.
So our prayer requests continue. Please pray he continues to improve. Also that he does not catch any other bug or infection from being in the hospital. Please pray the test is negative and that he does not have any urinary reflux. Please pray for financial provision so that we are able to pay for the hospital bill quickly.
We are so very appreciative of all the prayers and support. We could not get through this without such wonderful friends and family.
