Update

Okay we are here.  We are on the 3rd floor ICS overflow.  I talked to the resident and she said they will start his antifungal meds and continue his antibiotics tonight.  Tomorrow morning they will do surgery to remove his power port and he will use IV's in the arm until his infections are clear.  Then they will put a central line back in, probably a picc line (booooo) but we don't know for sure yet.  They don't seem too concerned about the fungal infection right now, the big thing is getting the port out I guess.  They said infections can be a little unpredictable but for now since he looks pretty good they aren't overly concerned. Thanks for the prayers, thoughts, and concern.  We are settled in and doing pretty good.  His lip is already improving on the vancomycin so that must be a bacterial infection.
