The Mysterious Fever

Grier's day was fine all day until around 6pm-- then the fever returned-- So, we still have not started chemo and we will find out tomorrow what the plan is--- So far.. nothing has turned up in his blood cultures-
We had lots of visitors today-- and Grier has been sharing candy with everyone that comes in our room.. Thanks to the Reids!!!
I took Hayes and Grace to basketball and got to see lots of people at church :) -- I am off to bed early tonight-- I think sleep deprivation is getting to me!!! Hopefully we will know something by tomorrow--

I hope you sleep well tonight. Why is it fevers always spike in the evening. We will pray for a fever free day tomorrow and also some answers.
As always you are in our hearts and prayers,

Oh, rats! We were all hoping for a fever-free day and evening so Grier could get going with the big stuff! Oh well, the best laid plans... We'll hope for a better tomorrow.

Glad you got to see so many people at Cov -- I'm sure they were equally happy to see you! You have been in another world for almost a month so welcome back to church and friends.

Sweet dreams tonight and you'll deal well with what comes tomorrow.

Love and prayers,

Sure hope you get a good night of sleep...you and Grier! I am much better off with a full night's sleep...I'm sure that will help you be better equipped to deal with tomorrow. Let's hope that something shows tomorrow as to the cause of the fever...or I'd just as soon it disappear altogether.

So glad you were among the rest of the crowd today at Covenant for basketball...able to enjoy some friendly faces:)

Hopeful tomorrow will be a new day that's fever-free! I know you're just ready to get on with this next step...and we're all praying that things step up a pace or two.

Happy Thanksgiving to you all as we head out of town to Delaware for the holiday weekend. We'll continue to pray for and check on Grier while we're away.

Lots of love and prayers...

I was so happy to see your and Grier's smiling face today! It has been awhile, and it made my day! I read in another mom's blog that she told her children that their whole family would be together for every holiday, it just might not be in the comfort of their home. I am praying that your get home for Thanksgiving, but if not, I am sure Turkey will be enjoyed at the hospital with your whole family! I can bring some more tea if you need it! Hopefully you will get some much needed sleep tonight.
