Day +62 Back in the Hospital

Sam woke up early Sunday morning with a high fever and chills. He had an infection that made its way into his bloodstream which caused him to be very sick. He spent the night in ICU where they took out his port (a possible source of infection), put in a new temporary line and gave him broad coverage antibiotics. Actually, they did all sorts of things to him, but those were the main things I remember.  The ICU is by far the strictest place in this hospital and I kept getting booted from the room.  He made a complete turn around during the night and is feeling much better today. They're even talking about transferring him off the floor so hopefully we'll be discharged within the next few days.
