Mercy Visit Day 4

Well guys. We are still at the hospital, still fussy and still don't
know what is the exact cause of it. Tucker was up all night again last
night. He has lost all his color. They stopped his feeds at midnight
thinking he might have a stomach flu or something. This morning, not
doing any better, they called for all kinds of tests. They are drawing
blood to check for infection, they are doing a chest xray, an
echocardiogram on his heart again, a urinalysis, and a xray of his
belly.
The congestion is under control and he is breathing much
easier-something in our favor. Before I left this morning, they took
out the i.v. that was put in on Monday-which had gone bad and was
leaking into his foot (could be number one cause of the fussiness) and
they put in a new on. Todd is there for the day with him-I am off to
work. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers. We will keep updating
the site until we are out of the hospital.
