Another rough one

As you can see our day started well enough.  Mark's "brother from another mother" came down and visited earlier and it was wonderful to see him!!  Mark was having a tough morning and to see his brother lifted his spirits SO much.  Leroy was able to stay for a few hours although unfortunately Mark started to feel bad during that time.  His fever came back.  Not good.

They came and took him back to xray to see what the pneumonia is doing and then took some more blood to do some infection cultures (we JUST replaced that blood!!!).  Now it's another waiting game.  It's frustrating to be "treating" something we don't know what it is.  It's terrifying seeing him shiver in bed with no energy to move and not know WHY.  It sucks thinking that we're done with the fevers, only to have them return 3 days later.  They just wear him out.

On the plus side he's gotten really good sleep today.  I'm sure his body needed it.  He's still asleep as I write this.

Pastor Brent was in today as well.  He stayed and talked with us for a while, got up to speed about all that's happening, time lines and whatnot and of course prayed with us.  He is such a special man to us and it was awesome to see him and now to have his presence in this room.  It's such a comfort for us both.

I wish I had more to say.  I wish I had positive things to post.  Thank you for your prayers and hopefully tomorrow will be better!

Love to all, B
